# Gear up for the running. If you can, apply moisturizer on your skin to keep itching and dryness away. Invest in good ski-mask or hoodie that will protect your neck, head and face from bitter wind. Pull a knit or fleece cap over your ears and wrap a scarf around your neck and mouth if you don't have a ski mask. Find a lightweight but warm winter jacket for you to wear. These are usually fleece. Gear up under it with a t shirt (long sleeved or short sleeved) and a sweatshirt. Too warm will cause you to sweat after a few seconds of running. Wear leggings and sweatpants, or long underwear and sweatpants. | # Gear up for the running. If you can, apply moisturizer on your skin to keep itching and dryness away.
