The Best Running Windbreakers for Your Outdoorsy Girl Era

If you're not a diehard lover of the outdoors, that's totally okay! Hiking to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro or running in freezing mid-December temps isn't for all of Us. But now that it's warming up outside, many of Us 'fairweather' nature lovers are venturing into the outdoors more frequently, especially for running . . . or hot girl walking.

But not every day is blue skies and sunshine — some days require a little more than a pair of shorts and a tank. When it's windy, you need a lightweight layer to protect your skin from the elements without causing you to overheat.

To ensure you remain protected, motivated and inspired on your outdoorsy-girl journey, we rounded up the best windbreakers from across the web. Whichever you choose, you'll power through your next run, hike, walk or bike in style and stride! Details below!
