Need advice on REALLY warm running gloves
I'm a fairly new runner who's trying to get the cold weather running thing figured out. I had my first run on a 36* day, which is pretty cold for Dallas. Thanks to some great advice on here, I was all set gearwise. I had a base layer, layer over that and fairly heavy running v-neck, some running tights (which as guy was…
