Hi -- this question is really for the females. Do you wear underwear underneath your spandex when you run? I've heard some do and some don't.

What Happens to Runners in the Winter?
Hi all -- I just recently started running this past summer and have fallen in love with it. My question is, what happens in the winter? Do runners still run? I run outside. What about ice?
