I think they look expensive. I ran in ronhill classics last year and never felt cold

Ronhill Classic Tracksters Only £13.99

I have a pair of Ronhill classics but I've not worn them in years but they did do the job. They also double as a thin extra layer when you have to brave the weather. I've worn mine many times when at the side of a football pitch

Thanks guys.

I don't acctualy get cold, not even in this weather.

I was thinking along the lines of the compression tights bit.

Opinions seem to be varied on the benefits of compression. Personally I don't think it will have much effect unless I am near the front competitively.

I have a pair of the far too expensive 'skins' branded compression leggings... well actually I have two... one 'normal' pair, and a pair of their travel/recovery tights. I think the compression aids recovery slightly if I wear them after exercise and whilst sleeping, but I certainly don't think there's much of a difference between the uber expensive types and the bargain basement ones - I have a compression/base layer set from Aldi (shorts + T shirt) which cost me £9.99 and they're just as good

If you want to give compression clothing a try, have a look at somwhere like startfitness who stock their own brand 'MoreMile' running kit/clothing which is cheap as chips and as good as anything else on the market
