It appears you're talking about running only, not cycling, is that correct?
Are you talking in degrees fahrenheit?
What sort of run? Short/long, low/high intensity
Sunny? Windy?
They all make a big difference.
If it's overcast, wet and windy and I'm doing a long low intensity run, I want to be warm and will probably wear tights even at 10-12 deg Celcius. If I'm racing and it's a sunny, dry, calm day, then even if the temperature is down near freezing I'd probably wear shorts.
He did say a run - so you should assume running.
Did you really not understand he was talking Fahrenheit?
Would you really think some-one would ask the question about tights in 34 celcius?
I did assume he meant running, but asked if I was assuming correctly in case he was looking for both. Is that a problem?
As for temperature: Yes, I reckoned he meant Fahrenheit, but how would I know for sure without asking? If you're going to use numbers, you need to use units. So I checked.
"degrees" alone is typically a measurement of angle.
In terms of temperature "degrees" alone is unhelpful. It's degrees Fahrenheit, degrees Celcius, degrees Kelvin...
In the US fahrenheit is commonplace for weather. The rest of the world uses Celcius. On ST, it could be either.
Depending on your background you may think this is pedantic, I really don't think so.
If you're american, have always lived there and 34 deg F seems like the right temperature for tights/shorts to become a quandry, then maybe it seems obvious. To me, not so much.
