Waited until it got nice a cold and a little breezy before I went running this evening. I wanted to test out some new arm warmers I bought before using them at my upcoming race. I don't like wardrobe malfunctions, so I'm a firm believer in trying out new clothes or equipment before race day. So, even though arm warmers seem like a minor piece of clothing, I wanted to practice using them under simulated cold starting line conditions. The verdict? They performed flawlessly. They kept me warm enough until I warmed up, and even then they stayed comfortable. I'd like to get a longer run in with them on to test how my arms react with prolonged exposure to spandex, but I may have to forgo that little bit of over-preparedness.
