What do you wear to run in now it's colder please. I can't warm up after my run but i only ran in a short sleeve top and cropped leggings as i took my running jacket off as i was hot. It was only 2 degrees this morning and now i feel frozen to the core huddled under a blanket.

I sat in front of the fire for 20 minutes and had 2 hot drinks and a blanket over me. Starting to defrost now!

I find I need to put an extra layer on when I’ve finished my run. I also have a good shower and get fresh clothes on as soon as possible.

I take my lightweight run jacket to pop on as soon as I stop running. You do get quickly acclimatised though You can leave your run til a little later in the day if your schedule permits

Hi I ran this morning in long leggings and a short sleeve top I must admit I was very cold when setting off but swung my arms during my warm up and although it was still chilly I was ok by the time it came to run. When I finished I had my usual red face and my body was hot but my arms were cold to the touch so I just jumped into the shower to warm up. Think I’ll have to look into buying a long sleeve top 😃

I had a brilliant long sleeve hooded top from Ogi Yogi.com for a fiver the other week. Is slightly fleecy on the inside so no getting too hot with a tshirt underneath. Legs don’t generally get cold even tho i’m Still in cropped leggings. It’s my feet I have trouble with when I get in, just can’t get them warm for ages ❄️
