I trained through many winters in bitter temps chasing big PRs at Super Sunday, New Bedford, and Boston clad head to toe in the warmest gear Tracksmith had to offer, but after my last injury, my hardcore switch flipped off and I no longer feel any need to go out in the cold or the dark. I miss it sometimes but the feeling of not being obligated to go run outside no matter the weather is, frankly, incredible.

What kind of injury? I worry about hurting myself running but people say it's a myth and that running makes your bones and joints stronger.

A hamstring injury. Running doesn't ruin your knees, really, but you have to be sure to stretch and strengthen to avoid overuse injuries.
