Lovely new running tights...

Having been told last week that we are in for a v cold winter I thought I'd order some running tights as I usually wear cropped ones and thought that as I want to keep up with the running over the winter I should be properly attired. Well they arrived this afternoon just before I was planning to go out. I tried them on. Lovely. Then thought I might as well keep them on for my run. Big mistake, I was boiling. I didn't realise what a difference they would make. Anyway least I know I'll be toasty warm when the snow arrives Just glad I left the gloves at home:)

ooo those new running tights sound goood:D may I ask what kind they are?

its starting to get chilly here too,

I run just in normal exercise pants but under them I have on some long first layer pants - lifesaver:D

got a same kind longsleeved top a swell that I plan to use too .. since it gets pretty cold here during the winter time ( - 20°C is not uncommon :S )

( I don't know if I can post links here but o well devold.com/outdoor-en/produ... and devold.com/outdoor-en/produ... ) had that pair now for years and used it a lot (although not for to wear when running - more like when out digging and arch. dig during the winter time .. brrrr )

-20, flipping heck ~ as a matter of interest, what do you wear on your feet in seriously cold conditions?

Frikkadella: they are Karrimor run tights. No idea whether they are any good at sub zero temps! It was just rather warmer here yesterday than I thought.
