More than ever, people are taking to the streets and trails to try to get in some exercise. As of now, the experts say that if you\u2019re practicing social distancing and exercising SOLO \u2014 it\u2019s OK to run outside. In today\u2019s #hurdlemoment, I talk about my why for continuing to run outdoors, and I address the concerns that Hurdlers are sending me via DM and email. I also offer up best-practice tips for newer runners, including how far you should (or shouldn\u2019t) be going, what sneakers to wear, and how to connect with other runners \u2014 even though you\u2019re doing the act physically alone. I also offer up my secret to staying motivated when the run feels blah, and finish things off by answering a few listener questions.
