    Beware of chafe! Tighter fitting pants work better for me for that reason.

    I don't think Sweatpants and a hoodie would look silly at all. In fact, When my brother was in Cross-Country in High School they had a 'cold weather' outfit that consisted of Sweat pants and a hoodie for those early morning runs. You'd see the entire team out running in them almost every morning, and any time during after-school practice that it was chilly.

    wear what you have that is weather appropriate. Believe me, no one on the running path is judging you! I never really notice what other runners are wearing. lol. Running is not the time to worry about such things. Its our time! Most important things about what you wear: Your bra, your shoes and your attitude. lol

    Trust me, no one cares what you wear to run other than you. Wear what you are comfortable in and what is appropriate for the temperature. You might want to look into non-cotton clothing (especially socks) and wicking fabrics to help with chaffing and blisters and I would suggest dressing for temps 10-15 degrees higher than it actually is outside. You might not need to invest in everything at once; maybe get one or two base pieces to start and add as you go.

    Other than that, knock yourself out
