I use to run with a guy from Hawaii. When ever it got below 60 he'd were tights or wind pant and at least 2 shirts. This was in North Carolina. Man, if it had been in Michigan he probably would have worn a snow suit.

I once got bad directions to a park from the hotel person and saw a bike shop as I was driving around lost so I went in there and asked about running and they gave me the map they give to people who rent bikes and I had a great run on a trail that circled a lake. <br />We visited family in Maryland last Thanksgiving weekend. I live in Michigan. At that time we were having middle of winter weather with snow and single digit temps, I was wearing all my hard-core winter running gear. Got to Maryland and it was in the mid 50s! I ran in my knee-length tights, 1 shirt, no hat or gloves. I thought it was great! All the people I saw running out there were all bundled up like it was below zero! One dude even had his face partially covered with one of those scarf type thingys! I felt a little out of place, one lady even asked me if I was freezing so I told her I was from Michigan!!Lorendanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6007050355748263232.post-63858264122629252009-05-27T21:00:21.172-04:002009-05-27T21:00:21.172-04:00Great Advice.Great Advice.The Lazy Triathletehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05145803660702038118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6007050355748263232.post-91911814146260509042009-05-27T15:47:24.076-04:002009-05-27T15:47:24.076-04:00Sure thing, Jo Lynn!Sure thing, Jo Lynn!RunnerDudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15209079063314051451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6007050355748263232.post-88302061454682749402009-05-27T15:46:51.718-04:002009-05-27T15:46:51.718-04:00Hey Untpawgal02!

Yay!! <br /><br />I noticed a few days ago that they even have running cruises. The cruise ships take you to various destinations to run.
