Every year, they keep coming into their own.

Deep cold is just around the corner.  For complete peace of mind against slips and slides at home or traction in open country at freezing temperatures – the MICROspikes from kahtoola have proven themselves invaluable.  For recces ahead of the High Peak Marathon, across frozen streams and icy boulder fields, they gave me the confidence to let go and run the ‘unrunnable’.

I even packed them just in case on race day when there wasn’t much chance of any snow – cause they’re so compact and lightweight.

Now’s the time to consider arming yourself with this kind of kit.  No good fighting your way out to the store once it’s already an ice rink.  Available now – better to have and not need, than to need and not have.

You can run in them, they’ll work in ice, slush, mud, wet rock, soggy leaves and whatever might cause you to slip (wet tree roots spring to mind). _CH
