Correct!!!
Dressing in layers is crucial during winter runs. A single thick layer like a warm jacket isn't adaptable to the varying conditions you might face. Starting with a moisture-wicking base layer keeps sweat off your skin, an insulating layer retains heat, and a windproof and waterproof outer layer protects against the elements. As you warm up, you can remove layers to prevent overheating and sweating, which can lead to chills.

Correct!!!
When you start your run against the wind, you do the hardest part while you're fresh. This way, you'll avoid facing a cold headwind when you're sweaty and more susceptible to the chill, which can be particularly uncomfortable and increase the risk of hypothermia. Finishing your run with the wind at your back is more comfortable, especially when you're tired.

Correct!!!
Hydration is just as important in winter as it is in warmer weather. Although you might not feel as thirsty in the cold, your body is still losing fluids through sweat and the increased respiratory rate common in cold weather. The dry winter air can also contribute to fluid loss. Staying hydrated is essential for your health and performance, so carry water or a sports drink and drink before, during, and after your run.
