I"m a runner who lives in the Northeast and my favorite time to run is the fall and the winter. I love the cooler weather b/c my body has a tendency to overheat during the warmer seasons no matter what I wear. The cooler weather allows me to run longer and harder. I never wear layers of clothing during the winter and I do just fine but I am likely the exception to the rule.
