I need to remember this for hockey season next year, as sitting in the ice rink can be brutal!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.glutenfreeislife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/IMG_0545.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none;

The instructions say to place the warmers either under or on top of your feet.&#160; I chose on top of based on the recommendation of a student that was with my sports doctor the last time I saw him.&#160;

I ran 7 miles outside with a wind chill of \u20135 and 30 mph winds and my feet were warm, with the exception of a short period of time of numbness on 1 toe, the entire run.&#160; This is a huge improvement over my past runs without the warmers.&#160; <\/p>\n<p>The following day I ran 3 miles outside and added a layer of tape outside my shoes to help block the wind, which worked until it fell off mid-run.&#160; I hear that duct tape works best for this, but I didn\u2019t have any on hand.&#160;
