I reckon you might melt in that. I've got a Soar jacket that I rarely wear because it's too hot.
My go to outfit is base layer vest, t-shirt, merino arm warmers and either shorts of tights depending on the temperature.
The hilliest I get is up and down and around Box hill several times.
If it rains I just accept I'll get wet. I don't really get cold until after I've finished

I can't run in anything too loose and flappy like that. Dunno why but it really bugs me, especially if the wind catches it. I always go with close fitting lycra/polyester type stuff. And I've never bothered trying to be water proof accept on a couple of long overnight runs.

Anyone use a non running specific jacket for running?
I wore a uniqlo down jacket the other day as I was so cold. Eventually I ended up with a soggy layer of feathers sticking to me and I was cold again, but for about half an hour it worked alright.

Rapha pack jacket is my go to running jacket. Normally throw in on over a t shirt when the temp drops below 5°c. Doesn't boil in the bag and it's good in wind/light rain

I got this a couple of years ago, mostly as a replacement for the 15 year old, similar carhartt jacket my mum gave to a cash for clothes shop 🤬
I'm considering using it for running as it's Gore Tex Infinium lined. It'll also look extra "steezy" in the hills. 😂
Will see how I get on.
Anyone use a non running specific jacket for running? As long as it's lightweight and water resistant, it should cover most bases.
