Better to give your body time to recover first as it might prolong it Your system needs time to fight off this cold You could try walking for a few days as the fresh air will help

Yes, it's fine. It may not make you feel better, but it won't make your sickness any worse. A cold is brought on my a virus. That is why antibiotics don't work for a cold and you have to let it run its course of time. Being out in the cold might make your nose run more, make your throat more sore, and increase the pain in your head or chest, and make your cough a little more severe, but when you come back inside, those symptoms should be back to where they were before you went outside.

A friend of mine used to job when it was -40 outside. nothing wrong with that.
With jogging, you'll be breathing through your mouth so a cold won't change much. Cover your mouth with a scarf or something if it's cold enough to freeze your throat. I suspect that exercise is good for you when sick, provided you don't stress your body so much it can't fight the disease.
So don't overdo it!

If the cold is in your nose, throat etc it is ok to exercise. Just take it easy. If you have a chest cold however, don't exercise until you get well. Exercise may force the infection deeper into your lungs causing more problems and lengthening healing time.

Not sure if it's medically correct but i've done it. I had a nasty chest cold, It was hard for me to talk let known breathe heavy and i jogged 1.5 miles a day, and it seemed to help it.
I'm not sure if a doctor would say it's ok, but it worked for me.

no. if you have a cold stay inside and drink plenty of water until you get better. plus sweating in the cold is not good for you especially when you are already feeling bad
