The first priority for me is not to get an injury. The second is run
in reasonable comfort.I have military style brown Danner boots, which are high and
waterproof. They go above ankles. If I run in them then, at least, my
feel will be dry. They are super comfortable and are similar to
real military black Danner boots.I'd like to hear some opinions regarding running in such boots. I can
settle for running much more slowly, which would be about same in
terms of energy spent due to boots and snow.
There's plenty of mid-height waterproof trail-runners out there, which, when
combined with gaiters, would do you a lot better than combat boots. But
honestly, unless you're out there much more than an hour, your feet won't
get cold. Alternatively, just do the other things suggested in here -
smartwool sox or the old plastic bags over your socks trick for slush.
