Inside gear is different than outside gear. You can get away with very little if all you are going to do is exercise inside a gym. Dress for the potential heat, but otherwise have fun.
If you are running on an outside path, however, you will need some basics. Let's start with loose, comfortable clothing, and debate something you can carry stuff in that is tight to your body as you don't want it flopping around.
If you want music on the path, and I encourage that, look for a cell phone that can play playlists. You can't call for help on a regular MP3 player.
Debate carrying food and water along with you as it represents additional weight you may not need. You should have scouted out good water holes on the path, and food is only useful at the end of the trail, even if you are diabetic.
You shouldn't need any more than your ID, keys, cell phone, lights, and maybe some sort of heart rate monitor. You can debate a first aid kit, but it is usually more problem than it is worth and represents additional weight you don't need. Trust me, you'll appreciate running light.
