Delhi faces some of the world's worst air quality, especially in winter when crop burning and cold temperatures create dense smog. Summer months bring some relief, but dust storms and vehicle emissions maintain elevated pollution levels year-round. Runners should avoid outdoor exercise during the October-February smog season.
