comment What precautions to take when running in wintertime?
Outdoors.SE will likely have some good information on winter clothing, but I've always liked REI's guide on layering. There are also other pages there for choosing base layers, insulation, and rainwear.

Can you delve further into what those evaluations and exercises are? Having that extra information here and referencing the book would make this a better answer.

comment Which one is best to maintain healthy body either yoga or Gym?
I'm not sure what you're really asking is all that clear here. You can make an argument for either really, but people's individual situations will vary widely. This can be a debatable question and answer, and "one size fits all" may not be the most appropriate. Are you trying to ask about your own situation? If so please update your question and add some more information. Be sure to ask something practical based on a problem you face as stated in the faq.
