No. Getting out in the sun may help get rid of a cold, but running or any physical exercise is contraindicated (not good) when you have a cold. Your body needs rest to do the work to get rid of your cold, so you should avoid strenuous exercise like running if you want to get rid of a cold faster.

Is it harmful to run in the cold?

No, providing that you take proper care to stretch and warm up your muscles. the only risks to running in the cold are the same risks you'd have standing around in the cold - exposure to the elements, flu and head-cold, and the like. if it's *very* cold - sub-zero weather, for instance - you should be careful to pace/dress yourself so that you don't sweat too much; sweat dramatically increases heat-loss in your body, which can increase you're risks for cold-related illnesses.
