Another "what to wear on race day?" post

[CallingAllAngels]

I'm running a 10 miler in the morning.  It will be 42 degrees partly cloudy at start and 52 degrees partly sunny at finish.  I feel like 40-50 is the hardest temp for me to figure out what to wear. 

I really want to wear shorts.  I will probably wear compression socks.  I don't have any capris that I love.  Think I will be okay in compression socks, shorts, short sleeve tee and maybe a long sleeve tee that I can take off and tie?

I'd do shorts and running tee short sleeved. I'd wear a long sleeved til race start and take off and tie or use a ditch shirt

SOunds good to me!

That's my ideal running temp! I like the knee tights from target (just below the knee) and a long sleeved T at that temp - though with the sun maybe short sleeved. Good luck!

I wouldn't even bother with the LS for temps like those!

Yes, wear shorts!

No wind?

No wind.  It's shaping up to a beautiful morning.  Last year, it was in the 30s and raining buckets. 

I don't wear tanks anymore.  I had one too many race pictures where all you could see was my arm fat blowing in the wind.

Boo! This race was canceled - apparently the greenway flooded from rain this morning.

Ugh, that sucks! So sorry to hear that.

[archaeominx]

Boo, I'd be pissed!

The weird thing is that the 5k I was supposed to run last week was postponed until tomorrow because of snow. So now, I'll just run that race. I was hoping for a big PR but I'm not sure now because I still need to run 10 tomorrow.
