Anyone have suggestions on how to train while dealing with intense wildlife smoke pollution? I’m in the Midwest and recently the air quality got really really bad, so I’ve been taking a break on outdoor activities. The bad air quality will continue for at least a week if not longer, so I do still want to train. What do people recommend? Just treadmill for the time being? Easy runs with a mask?

    Californian here, so we deal with this too often. Trust me, stay indoors on the treadmill. Even with a mask you’ll be feeling it, and its not worth it.

      Indeed - you only have one set of lungs, you lose more by getting them dirty than you lose by not enjoying the outside temporarily.
