I have a gaiter that works well, but I think something like pictured above will work even better for the colder days. I wear a pair of Saucony running gloves that are the fingers, but then have a neon yellow mitten part that goes over for extra warmth and visibility.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04270167145763200625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930457134828005115.post-50189650735327406862014-11-17T09:03:55.978-05:002014-11-17T09:03:55.978-05:00Great tips!
