Can I run in foggy weather?

Foggy weather is not suitable for running, which is not good for people's health. Moreover, there are security risks. Because fog is composed of water vapor condensate suspended at low altitude near the ground, these tiny water droplets often contain some soluble harmful pollutants and pathogenic microorganisms in densely populated and busy cities. So foggy days are not suitable for going out to exercise.

The foggy weather layer is stable, which is not conducive to the diffusion of air pollutants, and a large number of harmful gases accumulate in the lower atmosphere. At this time, it is best not to go out for sports activities, so as not to inhale too many harmful pollutants and induce various allergic diseases such as tracheitis, pharyngitis and rhinitis.

There is a lot of water vapor in foggy days, and water vapor condenses everywhere in the air. When people exercise, the oxygen consumption in the body increases, and breathing will inevitably deepen and accelerate, thus inhaling more fog, which will hinder the gas exchange in alveoli, leading to brain hypoxia, dizziness and other uncomfortable symptoms.
