Running Gear Recommendations

With rain and about 10°C, focus on staying warm and safe. Wear light, moisture-wicking layers (no cotton), and add a breathable waterproof jacket if needed. Opt for trail shoes with good grip and use a cap to keep rain out of your eyes. After the run, change quickly into dry clothes to avoid getting cold.
