You slip them over your running shoes, the way we used to slip chains over tires before front wheel drive became popular.
Will they work in a run? I'll find out soon, although I doubt there'll be much ice today. But that's not the reason for this post.
Many of us manage to hurt ourselves this time of year, just in the simple act of walking to our car during a snow or ice storm. Since these are pretty cheap and easy to use, I'd recommend these for old farts like me, not just athletes.

I have the brand. On Saturday night, I was too lazy to put these on. I fell getting into my car. And I fell getting out of my car. I have really been paying for my laziness. Yesterday and today, I have been suffering with pain in my ribs, arm, and neck. These "cleats" work well, when I am wearing them.

My mom wears these when she walks her dog during the winter. To my knowledge, she hasn't fallen with these bad boys on.
Which bears the follow up: you are older than my mom... and dad.

Have you been running at all during your weight loss or have you been walking? Congratulations on your weight loss success. I've never been a runner, but I would love to start getting a walking routine in each day whether it be outside or on the treadmill. It's just getting that motivation to get moving is what I'm looking for. I'm sure you've worked up to walking so many miles per day but can I ask how you started and how far you walked each week in the beginning? Thanks for any info you can share with the rest of us.
