Hi all. Not been on here for ages. Just done a lovely ten miler though was a tad icy in places.
What i want to know is, how come I'm still always too hot in shorts and t-shirt when all the other runners out there have trousers, tights, coat, wooly hat etc.?!
Because some runners feel the cold more than others. And, more specifically, some parts of the body are affected more than others. My fingers are freezing at the moment after a run, even with a pair of gloves on. Hat is a constant too, to try and keep the body warm. But I'm still in shorts because my legs don't cause me any problems at all. Trust me, I would LOVE to still be in t-shirt and shorts, but when I've been running into the wind for a couple of miles it feels like I've got frostbite
At this time of year there's probably a bit of people wearing new running clobber they got for Christmas, so as not to offend the person who got it for them by not wearing it
