    I am running a half marathon next weekend and the forecast calls for upper 30s for the race. I am thinking of wearing a tank top on the upper part of my body. I am wondering what others wear for those temperature conditions on the upper half of body? Is that enough or do you think I need a long sleeve top? Thanks.

    In the late 80s, there was a guy named Mike Roemer at the University of Oregon, who went shirtless 365 days a year.. rain, shine or cold.

    body generally warms up to make it feel about 20 degrees warmer than the actual temperature. Wear a tank top, cap and gloves, and ditch the cap and gloves if you get too warm.
