any advantages to running with sweats on?
 

sweatpants/sweatshirt? is there any advantage to doing cardio like this, as far as reducing body fat goes?

nah

Meh.

During the winter it'll help keep your muscles warm so you maybe can run a little longer/harder, but I doubt they have a significant impact.

Yeah it's good to keep warm when running in cold weather, but making yourself sweat more is not +EV unless you're a boxer trying to make weight.

I like to wear sweats & sweatshirt over my gym clothes and I'll do my warmup in the sweats so that I get all warm and loose, then take them off to workout.

You'll be hotter and sweat more. Probably around the same advantage as wearing a lot of clothes all the time.

Do 30 minutes of that and then 30 minutes in the rubber band vibration machine. Then drink lots of mineral spring water. You'll be a strongman in no time!

Good friend of mine used to workout extremely covered up (sometimes going as far as to wearing trash bags) It just helps you sweat more, but can be helpful in losing weight.
My friend lost over 70 pounds doing this and running 4-5 miles per day, 4-5 days a week

this will inrease weight loss via water weight, but will not have a noticable impact of actual fat loss...
