I never know how to dress properly if it's not warm out. I tend to put on too many layers. In my mind I know that I'll get hot a couple minutes into the run, but that hasn't stopped me from throwing on a zip-up. Half way through my run I get uncomfortable and maybe that affects my performance. Jeff Galloway has a section of what to wear in different temperatures, I'll have to reread that section and follow it!

Proper Attire
The Pixie Dust faded, just as I thought it would. The first mile of my run was pretty good, but then I was struggling. I didn't even do 3 miles! It could have been the weather - it was about 20 degrees cooler and it had rained earlier in the day. But at least I went out there, right?! Nearing the end of my run, I told myself that I had to go to kickboxing, too, since I didn't perform my best. I knew none of my friends were going, so this was my first solo class at the gym! It wasn't as bad as I thought - not as much fun and laughing to get my through, but still a good workout.

Hydration Belt
The next "reward" I'm giving myself will be a hydration belt when I reach 7 miles. I've been researching these for a while now and I just don't know what I want to get. I don't think any will be flattering to wear, but I do think it's essential to stay hydrated, and with warm weather approaching I want to be prepared.

Some I looked at had one bottle that was larger, but when I thought about it, I feel like that was bounce more/be more uncomfortable to wear. Then I thought about a hand held, but I like having my hands free.
So these are the ones I'm currently looking at:
NATHAN SWIFT
FUEL BELT REVENGE® R2O 2 BOTTLE BELT
NATHAN SPEED 2
Any suggestions?
