If it's cold where you are and you're planning to run Boston, you've probably dealt with the dilemma of running on bitter cold days. How many layers? Gloves or mittens? Clif Bar or Gu?

As long as you keep moving, you'll be OK... unless you forgot the hat and subsequently crack your friggin' ear off like Jennifer Davis. DOH!
