After 7 months, I've grown to love an afternoon jog. Soon the weather is going to suck, but I want to continue! Looking to buy new warm running gear to help.

What are your suggestions for running gear during the Fall and Winter seasons?

:glasses:

    The under armour mock neck compression long sleeve shirts. Fantastic! You barely need a top layer. SO warm!

    Multiple thin layers. My top layer is usually a Brooks Nightlife jacket. It's bright and reflective, as well as wind and wetproof.

    thin layers of dri-fit type material. Racing gloves (check a running specialty store, these are lightweight and not like regular heavy gloves or mittens) and dri-fit hat or headband. You should be comfortable before the run but not over dressed or warm--you will get overheated in a heavy coat or outfit.

    Stay away from all-cotton socks because when they get damp they'll hold in the moisture--brrr...


    I just did my first half marathon in 38 degree weather and multiple, light, dri-fit layers were perfect :)
