I'm looking for a trail running jacket (for rain and subfreezing temps): light weight, waterproof, breathable, etc. I sweat a lot and am generally quite warm if exerting myself. This seems like a great jacket, but is it overkill for what I want? Any other suggestions for something that would fit the bill?
thanks!

i feel that this jacket may be a bit too much for trail running considering it is cut more for skiing/other outdoor activities, but i suppose if you got a smaller size it would work pretty well. 14oz is pretty light weight for a technical shell so that is a positive. One recommendation would be the Arc'teryx Alpha SL pullover. 11oz, Anorak that can be zipped freely to vent and it packs into its own kangaroo pocket.
