A Cold Weather Running Outfit from @Kohls

A few Friday nights ago, snow fell for the first time up here in Michigan, which made for a very chilly and sloppy (and awesome) Saturday morning run. I remember digging through my gear that night before, noting that I was low on cold weather running outfits. So I've been keeping my eye out for sweet deals on workout clothes that will keep me warm through the Winter. Of course, I found stuff at Kohl's.

It's a very odd day when I walk into Kohl's and don't see anything I like. In this case, the FILA SPORT gear caught my eye. Such a great, affordable and fashionable line of workout clothing. I ended up buying an entire outfit:

Fleece-lined leggings, a long-sleeve workout tee and a fleece top that I can't find online:

It has thumb holes, and the material is super thick. I don't think it'll be warm enough for those seriously chilly  Winter mornings, but I have a super thin Nike running jacket that will fit over it nicely. Seriously, I've had my Nike jacket for at least ten years I think. I wish I could link you to it (you can see it here). My only complaint about it (which is not really a complaint): It doesn't have a hood so I'll be grateful for the hood on this FILA SPORT fleece.

I also have a black fleece-lined Nike  beanie and a black fleece headband (with a ponytail hole!) that I rotate wearing based on the temperature.

I wear some cheap black knit gloves, too.

But my favorite cold-weather running accessory is this fleece neck warmer that I got as a gift a few years ago:

At first, I didn't think I'd use it very much, but it's literally the best thing ever. It's a scarf and a face protector all in one. And it's cute, so...bonus points. And since we're talking about cold-weather running accessories now, I feel like I have to mention my Yaktrax.

I haven't had to wear them yet this year, but Yaktrax are a must-have for any runner that wants to keep running outside in the winter.

Other things I can't go running without, even in the Winter: My Garmin Forerunner 15 and my Mizuno running shoes. Currently rotating between Wave Rider 18s and Enigma 5s. Oh, and lip gloss. I always run with lip gloss in the Winter because I hate chapped lips.

That's just the worst.

Tomorrow, I'm leading a 7:00AM run. No snow is expected to fall tonight, so I'll be a flash of green running around with a bunch of other fun runners. To see what my blog friends are wearing these days, check out the #fitnfashionable linkup.

Oh, and if you find any running outfits for cold weather on sale, let a girl know.

Question: Do you prefer running in cold weather, or is warm weather your thing? Tell me why!
