Outdoor spinathon- what would you wear?
To disable ads, please log-in.
I'm signed up for a few hours of a 24-hour spinathon this weekend. Lows should be in the 20s and highs will be in the 30s. I'm torn about what to wear. On one hand, it will be darn cold. On the other hand, there will be almost no wind to contend with since we'll be on trainers. I have a good assortment of winter clothing, but I don't want to pack it all! What would you wear?
(Entertain me, please! It's the day before a 4 day weekend, and my concentration is waning!)

I'd go with easy-to-remove layers, like full-zip jerseys, leg warmers on top of tights. Good luck!!

I'd make sure you have chemical hand warmers. Even though you won't have the wind, the circulation in your fingers will suffer from the lack of position changes.

All good ideas- thanks! I hadn't thought of the hand warmers, but they will absolutely be necessary.
