Running in the rain

[ridingstar]

Decided to do a nice little 10k this afternoon and 6k into it the rain started !! It was wonderful, quite heavy rain but I was quite warm by then, too warm for my Aldi rain jacket, so I just enjoyed it I will never let rain put me off again !!

I love running in the rain, it's very cleansing isn't it?? Well done you!!

I don't often set out if it is heavy rain but if it starts once I'm out really enjoy it.

Yes I am not sure I would set out in heavy rain but is was very welcome when it did rain !

Well done, I find the rain refreshing. Trouble is this time of year you got to watch out for the leaves on the ground, but keep at it and enjoy your running.

I was on an old railway line so was watching out for puddles I didn't want to get my lovely Brook Ghost running shoes dirty

I like your style 😊, I run in brooks adrenaline and do my best to keep them clean. Don't seem to work though!

I was going to go running in the rain for the first time today, got myself ready with my rain running jacket and when I stepped outside it had stopped. I was quite disappointed...

Running in the rain is just wonderful. I find it almost liberating and splashing through puddles definitely brings out my inner child. Won't be long before you are itching to go out every time it rains!

Well done. You joined the Running in the Rain posse! Great innit

I jogged out and back with the dog this morning,up to the park in the torrential rain. He loved it too! I had a hooded fleece on. It weighed a ton by the time I got back. I've not run in my Aldi hooded jacket yet. Can't wait. It's going to run all day so I might get chance

Trail runs in the rain are the best! Love em!

It was a bit of drizzle when I set out so put my nice Aldi jacket on but I soon got too warm for it so ran in a t shirt, the rain jacket is so light I barely noticed it around my waist and the knot I tied stayed put so 10/10 for the jacket. My dog came too she loved it and splashed through every puddle !
