| There is no "secret" about running.  There are only tips on what works for other people.  No one should be scared to run outside on a cold day unless it is icey out or traffic is a concern.  Everything else is just distraction.  Those two are dangerous.  
 I've heard about spikies but not good things.  Apparently they're not really stable on asphault or concrete.  A guy I know had a really hard wipeout on them when he ran across a frozen puddle.  He might have wiped out anyway, but he blamed it on the spikies.  Then again, they may be better than sliced bread; I don't know.
 
 Now get your ass out of that chair and go for a run.
