Or, heed the advice of Camille Estes with River City Races “In cold weather or situations in which the temperature may fall, precautions should be taken. Long runs of an hour or more in cool or rainy weather increase risk. Wear layers; cover exposed skin including hands, ears and nose; stay hydrated; and know the symptoms of hypothermia and frostbite.”
