As someone who routinly runs practically half marathons in sub zero (during winter) I used to be like this as well, but if you do this type of activity often at some point cold air literally stops being a problem.
I don't know what happened but it is as if this was never a problem at all. And it is not "getting used to the bad thing" I just don't feel bad at all.
Breathing through the nose only helps.
- IIsi50MHz 4y agoNot for me. I have to breath only out through my nose, in cold weather, or my cilia stop moving and I need a pack of tissues. Ew.
- atoav 4y agoThat was me three years ago, before I started running 30 km per week regardless of weather. After two weeks of doing that (I started around Christmas) it was not a problem anymore.
