32 Days till Marathon - is it cold or hot?

I guess I'm learning how to run in all types of weather!!! When I run I usually run with the least amount of clothing as possible. My ideal outfit would be a tank top and shorts. However, this morning it was a little to cold for that so I had to wear a 3/4 length spandex and a running shell over my tank top. By the 2 mile I was sweating bullets!! Not to mention I forgot to put on my head band so the sweat was dripping in my eyes. No matter how much experience you have at dressing yourself to go for a run, it never surprises me how you can not be prepared. I do hope that it's warm enough to wear only a tank top and shorts on marathon day, but that is another month away and along the ocean so I doubt it! I don't want extra clothes weighing me down or have to carry them. These days I don't know how to dress, when you leave the house and it's hovering around 10 degrees and it feels super cold standing on my front porch, it could be totally different from 2 miles down the road when I have my heart rate up and the morning sun is shinning on my face. One thing I know is that I have to get a pair of running gloves. I don't like having cold hands.
Today's Stats: 4 miles, 6.43k, my watched stopped so I don't have all the break downs for today :(
