Jan 09 - London Calling
I'm the same as you, AH. Can't bear running in the heat, and is one of the reasons that I've often failed to reach the target of an autumn marathon -- the fact that you have to train through the summer.

The upside of that is that I seem a bit more cold-resistant than many. I don't understand the leggings thing. It's got to be really bitter for me to consider wearing leggings. I've done so once this winter, and probably half a dozen times max in the 7 or 8 years I've been running. It's only in the last couple of years that I've started to wear a running jacket as a matter of course through the winter months -- and I frequently regret that once I'm a mile into it.

I think I'd willingly become a bit weedier in the winter department if I could trade it for being better able to cope with the heat.
