Hotels We Love: Sundance Mountain Resort

The Utah getaway that started it all, Sundance Mountain Resort has long maintained its status as one of the premier ski resorts in the country thanks to its intimate ambiance and woodsy feel. From the unique experience of night skiing to zip-lining across snow-covered valleys, the area is an explorer’s paradise, although you’ll have plenty of reasons to get cozy on the property as well. The rooms are comfortable and luxurious, and the wood-lined walls offer the perfect environment to cozy up under a blanket after a long day. Even more impressive are the culinary offerings, which utilize the woodland atmosphere to create a striking backdrop to mountain-inspired cuisine.

Bonus: The Best Running Gear for Cold Weather Miles

If you love being outside as the endorphins hit those few minutes into your run, you aren’t going to want to quit just because it’s winter. Think of all the steps you’d be missing out on! That means it’s time to get yourself proper cold-weather running gear.

Running in the cold can be exhilarating. But if you’ve tried running in colder temps and ended up either sweating buckets or freezing your tail off, you probably had the wrong gear. As temperatures drop, and as heat loss accelerates, the body can’t compensate fast enough. 

Dressing with finesse to keep your core warm can mean the difference between a fantastic winter run and pretty much the worst morning of your life with cold fingers, a body dripping in sweat, or burning ears and you swearing you’ll never run again.

Getting prepared for a winter run is difficult, but with the right gear, you might just find you prefer it.

We have summarized all the best gear for your winter runs to simplify your hunt and list tips for winter layering and how to buy the best gear.

If you get nothing else, our top picks for gear include a great baselayer like the Smartwool Intraknit Merino Crew, the Saucony Peregrine 12 ST for running in snow, and the Seirus Innovation Xtreme All Weather Waterproof Gloves to protect your hands.

The right gear for your winter run will allow you to focus on your technique and won’t be uncomfortable, irritating and bulky. Here’s the best gear and advice on all the cold-weather running gear you need this 2024 winter.
