Jacket, useful for slower effort runs or being out on the fells else plenty of merino layers & maybe a windproof gillet could be enough.
Patagonia Houdini comes to mind.
I got two Salomon rain jackets (for running), first was a "Bonatti" (I think the trail version), second was a Gore Tex one (they don't do anymore / right now, it seems) - both are good, the Gore Tex one is amazing actually.
In regards to running in shit weather I also heard good things about the Adidas jackets.

Waterproof socks with merino inners if you're hiking/ fastpacking for 3hrs+ else htfu.
Similar for leggings. Alpkit Khoulin Trail tights I'd recommend.

I do own and use a lightweight Montane jacket but very rarely when running. It will last a few years before it delaminates so good vfm.
