I'm relatively new to this whole thing, I did most of my running last year inside on a treadmill, I'd rather not do that if I don't have to. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to wear as to run outside when the weather gets colder? I'm especially concerned on how to keep my feet warm.

thanks

layers, w something in a 'wicking/tech' fabric as your base layer.

keep your CORE warm, and generally the rest of you will be. at least i found that to be the case.

when it gets really cold, i run w a vest on top, rather than a coat.

keeps the arms free but the CORE warm.

as for feet, i HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend SMART WOOL running socks.

they have a cycling version as well.

a little pricy, but worth every penny.

and you might think, WOOL, ewww, itchy. they arent at all. and keep your feet toasty-oasty (and AMAZINGLY cool when its warm...) and they are very sweat resistant (therefore blister resistant) as well.

HAPPY RUNNING!

DITTO on the smart wool LOVE THEM!!!!

kimk - 2009-10-01 8:34 AM I am Kim and I have been doing tri's for 2 yrs. Just finished my season on Sunday with 2nd in my age! First time I have gotten hardware! I want to do a 1/2 mary the beginning of November so this run challenge will do me good! Need to still figure out my goal. Will look at the training plans here or if anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them! The longest I have ever run was a 10 mile but that was in June. I have only been doing 5k's since then. So I need to start from there. I am also a fitness instructor at the Y and need to adjust my workouts for when I teach a lot of classes.

Kim, congrats on the AG hardware!!!!

x2~ also kim there is a program I followed called Hal Higden...wanna join us hals gals? he makes it simple to train...just follow his daily program...if you are too late just count backwards from the day of the race and see where you should be....

and my sister who is a marathon runners SWEARS by the run 5min walk 1..run 5 min walk 1...for the entire race...says she totally beats her times of trying to run the whole thing!?! I have trained to run it...so I personally am goint to try and run the entire race!? hoping no walky for me!

I am a big fan of the Hal Higdon plans. I'm on week 5 of the Novice Half Marathon plan. Am running the Philadelphia Half in November.

so we have lots of hals gals on this team... Here is a big ol' HIP HIP for hals gals!!!!!

Me too! I am using the novice HM plan!

serendipity - 2009-10-01 11:25 AM I sat down with my lunch to catch up on the thread. Lunch was gone, still had 5 pages to go. So I made some tea. Then decided as long as I was having tea, I should have desert....

So, anyway, I've been eating for the last 1 1/2 hours and I blame it on this team!

You better get running to burn off some of those calories!

Holy Cow!!! Finally got through all the pages! Here we go.........

CANDY....I love Snickers!

COLD WEATHER RUNNING GEAR.....Dress for how you will feel mid-run. Layers. I never worry about my feet. They don't get cold. Headband for ears and neck gaiter. (I used to live where it got cold, cold, cold. Now I just have to deal with rain, rain, rain.)

MUSIC.....I get lots of my music off emusic.com. Lots of indy stuff and hard to find stuff. It's cheaper than itunes. I have an ecclectic taste due to teaching Spinning. I love the electronic stuff and hard rock while running. Soul to Squeeze and Breaking the Girl by Red Hot Chili Peppers have the perfect beat to get you running at an optimal cadence. So does Black and White by Sarah McLaughlin. Anything by Asura puts me into a total zone on long runs. Hmmmm. I've got lots.

RUNNING TODAY?.....Nope. I don't run on consecutive days yet. Still trying to get my milage back up after having a baby.

Cheers!!!!
