For the Runners

If you’re hitting the Charles River Esplanade or the Emerald Necklace today, this is “PR weather.” That dry, cold air is perfect for keeping your core temperature down, provided you layer right.

• The Gear: Think light gloves and a headband. You’ll want a base layer that wicks moisture—once that wind hits a sweaty shirt, the “brisk” feeling turns “arctic” very quickly.
• The Reward: Crystal clear views of the skyline and a path that’s just a little less crowded than usual.

Whether you’re sprinting past the Citgo sign or just briskly walking to your 9:00 AM, enjoy the clarity that only a day like this provides. Stay warm out there!
