Cool/Cold weather jogging
What type of clothes/gear do you wear for jogging in anything 40 degrees and below? I'd like to try keeping up with running outside a bit this fall/winter.

Running on the verge of a cold
I'll be participating in the Hot Chocolate 5k this Saturday and trying my hardest not to catch the cold that's been going through my office, not to mention a nasty one from my room mate.
