You Asked: Burning Lungs From Running in the Cold

In these days of hybrid cars and carbon credits, it is common knowledge that substances exhaled by autos and coal plants are harmful to our respiratory system. What may be surprising is the degree to which they may harm the brain—in some instances, as much as exposure to lead.

I'm a regular at the gym, but during spring I had a chance to move some of my workouts outside - walking or running on a lakeshore trail, hanging out in the park - and I loved it!
