I'm in Boston too and yeah, the wind can get fierce. I LOVE my aerobars - they definitely take a load off my wrists and reduce my drag. That being said, they do impede your ability to brake so I'd only use them in places where you aren't around traffic. I have these (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004S43UYC/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_x_cA4HybQB7ZE0R) on my bike and they were a simple 15 minute addition. You mention you're on a trail for a part of your commute - which one? Minuteman? Charles River?
Here's my basic amazon sleuthing trying to do it for less. I suspect this is a bad idea, but I need to know why:
Bullhorns
Brakes
Aero Bars
Yeah, I'm super natural on them, I jump over stuff with them, sprint uphill, etc. Sprinting on aero bars allows me to raise my torso like I normally would sprinting upright, but still keep my head out of the wind.
