I ran with a local store for a few years as part of marathon training. During that ramp up of my running I learned to run in just about anything. I’ve run in single digit temps, snow, lightening, dark… Just about everything :)
There’s always an excuse to not run, getting through those excuses is the trick.
Once, our running group (there was only a handful of us) helped a car get up a hill. It was stuck in the snow haha.
With the cold, you’ve gotta just keep running from summer, through fall into winter and you acclimate with the weather. I never really experience any breathing issues in the cold. once it gets down below 20°f I start putting aquaphor on any exposed skin (cheeks/lips/nose).
I don’t generally run “at night” but as winter hits, I run in the dark for sure. Lots of lights, including a head lamp. I actually feel more visible to cars running at night, but generally it’s associated with winter and colder temps too.
I have never really had issues with “red 11” (aka nipple issues) running, and also quite enjoy running in the rain. A light rain can be a quite enjoyable.
I’ve run in Toronto (Brampton area) before. I’ve been up there for work a few times. Looking on Garmin connect, seems it was back in 2017 :)

That’s awesome. The only thing keeping me from night runs is the coyotes which is weird I’m in an urban area outside Toronto lol.
How you find single digits with the nose adjustment? I always find the temp shock takes a while to accustom breathing deep.
Rain I hate the raw nipples but love everything else about running in the rain.
