With the wind and rain you will need the jacket.
Wrong.
If it is not below zero, you certainly don't "need" a jacket.
T-shirt and arm-armers will be fine on top.
Cap or beanie, either way. Beanie if you are really concerned.
Shorts. Do not even consider pants. Leg temperature is not going to be a problem.
the wind breaker if to shed the RAIN.
But I am sure you are every bit as tough as you claim, nonetheless.
So how did your marathon go today?
How was the weather and what did you decide to wear?
It sounds like the original poster ran the same race as I did this weekend. If so, the temperatures were actually fantastic. The rain was not. Started pouring about 30 minutes into the race and lasted close to 15 minutes. (Side note: Made all the intersections flooded where every turn had ankle deep running water) Anyway, I started with long sleeve on top of short sleeve and gloves. When pouring rain ended, I shed the long sleeve and gloves. Ran standard shorts sleeve/shorts the rest of the way and was fine. Didn't notice anything about my attire considering my shoes were constantly soaked.
Is there a rule against attaching a helium balloon to yourself while running a road race?
