According to The Huffington Post, an outdoor run in winter, as opposed to one on a treadmill (跑步机), burns more calories because the body is working hard to regulate (调节) its core temperature.Furthermore, research shows that race times are faster in cold weather than in warmer temperatures－and quicker runs burn more calories.Similarly, cold weather also makes the heart work harder to distribute blood through the body, making that vital muscle even stronger. Outdoor exercise also turns up your energy and rids you of the stress and depression that build up every day.The heat and humidity in summer can drag you down and tire you faster, but cold weather is refreshing.It adjusts you to your surroundings, making you feel alive. Of course, the threat of smog in some built-up areas is a further hurdle to winter exercise.Heart attacks, strokes, lung cancer and asthma are all dangers of running in smog.The combination of air pollution and exercise increases the potential problems.If you do choose to run outside on smoggy days, take a path in a park or residential area to avoid car exhaust (废气) ，and go early in the morning, before rush hour.But staying inside on smoggy days and waiting for the next clear day to run is best. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。介绍了冬季户外跑步的意义和方法。冬季户外跑步能燃烧更多的热量，让肌肉更强健，心脏更健康，但是应当避免在雾霾时进行户外活动。 1．How does cold weather benefit runners, compared with warm weather?
