Now that it's March most of us want to start thinking about Spring and warmer temps, but many of us are still covered in snow. If you're looking at a few more weeks of wintry weather, and the trails you want to run on are too powdery for sneakers with Yaktrak, then you might want to check out a pair of racing snowshoes. This pair made by Redfeather (on sale for $220), can be worn with your comfy running shoes or lightweight hiking boots.

What is not to love about snowshoeing? It is Winter hiking at its best since you can tromp around anywhere that's covered in snow, tackle steep hills, and get your heart rate zooming even though it's cold outside.
I happen to be a fan of the Elektra 12 Series by Atlas since they were designed especially for Winter hiking.

If hiking is your favorite Summer pastime then you're going to love snowshoeing in the Winter. Hiking on snow-covered trails is incredibly peaceful, but requires more than just boots for footwear.

Looking for an easy way to relieve holiday stress? Snowshoeing is one of my favorite things to do in the Winter because it's much cheaper than skiing or riding. It's also more fun to do with someone else, because since you're moving at a walking pace, you'll still be able to chat and laugh together.

Check out the Chariot XC Skiing Child Transport System (CTS) Kit ($210).
