What percentage of the year do you run in extreme temps?
50 percent. There are really only two seasons in Illinois: summer and winter.

running is fine up to minus 20

I guess if you bulk up in a bunch of clothing you can run in anything but if I can't feel somewhat unfrozen in tights and and two wicking layers it's not really worth it for me.

Never wear tights. Wear some pants. If it's -30 wear another layer under them.

Wear enough layers up top that you are comfortable.

That's just it bro. The layers aren't comfortable, and the thought of running in loose fitting pants makes my skin crawl.

Worst part of running in -20 is your junk freezing and thawing. I still have PTSD from a post-run shower a couple winters ago.

I find you just need something to break the wind in front of it and you are fine.

I definitely know the pain of freezing your dick tho. I had a mild case about a month ago. Three years ago I got it so bad I was rolling on the floor almost passing out though. I will never forget it.

I ran in tights just yesterday. It's great especially if your route takes you through some high grass.

What's gross about it? I have a long sleeve zip up that covers my junk and badonkadonk. All the tights do really is accentuate my ripped calves

Wow. The 4s are absolutely hideous.

The 5s are when they start looking good. The way the stripes lay on the 8s are my favorite bit of design of any of them.

Thanks for taking the time to track 'em all down.
