As an avid runner, I notice when the air gets smoggy. I am lucky enough to not have any breathing issues normally, but I worry about the long-term effects of polluted air on my lungs as I breathe heavily on my long runs around Arlington, VA. It feels terrible to be running outside in such a beautiful area but to feel like I am breathing in fumes. And traffic congestion only seems to be getting worse in this area.
