For the race

• Head - Assess weather on the day, but a buff head wrap, or headband could be useful for warmth and keeping hair out of face.

• Top half – sports top, moisture wick. No cotton. If cold wear a long sleeve base layer or thermal also. Long sleeve may also protect your skin from scrapes.
