Colorado Runner - Colorado's running news, events and results source

Athletes really push their bodies to the limit, demanding peak performance and fast recovery. Rest and nutrition are important, but adding a sauna into your post-track routine could be a game-changer.

Because of a busy work or school life, it can be hard to get out in the morning or during the day for a run. Weather can also play a part in this, as it’s not as comfortable bracing the midday heat in the summer for a workout, as it is cooler evenings.

While you’re pounding the pavement, though, there’s a hidden danger you also need to watch for. As you look to smash a personal best or sweat out the stresses of the day, your eyes may also take a beating from Colorado's harsh sun.
