Here is the jacket I picked:

I posted both jackets on the community forum on www.coolrunning.com, and everyone told me the other jacket was to heavy. And they said it was easier to layer with this jacket, to make sure you don't overheat. So seeing the good deal I bought it, plus since I live right by an REI they shipped it to the store free!
I recently went into a running gear store called The Running Center (I think) and asked them the same question and got the same responce. So although I haven't tried running in the cold yet, haven't really had the chance, I can't tell you what I think. I'm looking into getting a thin fleece to put over my long sleeve cool wick shirt, or get thermal underware that wicks as well, so we'll see. It's all experimental for now.
Where in MO do you live? I live in Clayton. Geez doesn't it bite about the Cardinals? x(
