And since I'm a big wussy and don’t want to be cold; I would like to dress warm. Can anyone tell me what should I wear? Thanks a bunch Oh and tonight I have 4 miles, maybe 5 if I feel up to it... Here's a chart that I found on the Runner's World site a couple years ago. I'm glad I held on to it, because it's no longer there. Only recommendations and a starting point. Modify it as you need to. P.S. I also added a wind chill calculator at the bottom of the chart to give you the 'real' temperature. ...and by the way, what other precipitation is there besides rain and snow...hail...meteors...dust...Dorothy's house from Kansas...a cow? It just made me laugh, but I left it on the chart anyway... Let me know if you can't pull up the chart, and I'll save it as an older Excel file (xls) LOL!! Yeah sorry I forgot to mention the cows... |

What's the predicted temp and how wussy are you? It is going to be between 40-45 and rainy all day. I am wussy enough to know that I am going to need something to keep me warm but not wussy enough to put 15 layers on. If that helps any…  If it were me I'd wear: light or mid-weight tights long sleeve wicking top waterproof/water resistant jacket light weight hat light weight gloves I guess I'm a little more hardcore, and used to a little colder temps (MN). Underarmour sleeveless SHORTS! (nothing worse than running in the rain with WET tights/running pants Long sleeve wicking shirt Running hat |

| Extreme Veteran 339 | Subject: RE: Crypt Keepers - Halloween Run Challenge sparco - 2009-10-08 10:04 AM O.K. here it is in xls format... With cold weather running, you DO NOT want to dress too warm, because that will cause you to sweat. If you're wearing technical wicking clothes, you should be ok, but if you're wearing cotton clothes (which absorb and hold on to moisture), in very cold weather, that's just a recipe for hypothermia. A nice cold, wet layer of cotton acting as a heat sink against your skin...boo... Good for you for getting out in the cold...don't follow my example...I'll take an indoor track and a treadmill over running outside when it's 10 degrees F...  Sorry I’m a dork I should have read the rest of the replies. Min |

| Expert 2555 Colorado Springs, Colorado | Subject: RE: Crypt Keepers - Halloween Run Challenge It was cold today. Only mid 30s. I managed to get in 8.33 miles. This craptastic weather is supposed to last a few days so I better get used to the cold weather gear again. |

That sux! Weather like that isn't something you could have trained for. At least you won't overheat! Make sure to keep up with the hydration though as colder temps often fool people into thinking they don't need as much fluid. |

Make sure to keep up with the hydration though as colder temps often fool people into thinking they don't need as much fluid. That was so much more eloquent than my response Actually, Sal, I'm a little more sympathetic on this one than I ordinarily am (please do not confuse this for me getting soft in my old age or my icy heart melting or any other such nonsense)... seems to me I really should only comment on the weather forecast when you sign up for races with words like tundra or frozen in them. Wait... that sounds so familiar... (see Sal's sig line for the reference). Either way, I'm sure you'll do great! |

Give me a little while to become acclimated. LOL) But a lot of people DO this. The other day, it was 59 F, and I was amazed at the number of people I saw wearing heavy "winter coats." I'll bet that in a few years, I'll be one of the winter-coat wearers. LOL |

Once it hits 50 we simply stay indoors for the remainder of the winter. It's makes for a long two weeks. |
