Winter Gear Gets Better

Winter apparel for runners just keeps getting better. The options for tights, pants, and jackets with varying degrees of waterproofing, wind resistance, and breathability mean that there's something for everyone.

If you are in need of new gear this winter, check out the reviews of some of the latest products on runnersworld.com or roadrunnersports.com.

Remember, use the 20-degree rule. When you are out running, it will feel about 20 degrees warmer than the actual temperature. So, you might not really need the fleece-lined tights if you live where it rarely drops below freezing in winter.

But everyone had their own comfort level as far as winter running. You will see people out in shorts when it's 25 degrees, but I won't be one of them!
