I was very lucky with the weather just now, as it was torrential rain first thing. Although Iโ€™d have run in it, the novelty kind of wears off! Anyway, the clouds lifted and the sun came out, there was a light breeze, and it was just lovely.

I donโ€™t really think about much when I run apart from trying not to trip over or my legs are feeling a bit tired now, but today I was feeling especially grateful to this wonderful community - I think without it I wouldnโ€™t have done half the runs I have, so thank you.

Apparently the weatherโ€™s meant to improve from tomorrow? Iโ€™ll believe it when I see it, but if it really is the case, I hope everyone has some great runs this week. ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž

Fantastic effort, a great 8k in a great time. You are so lucky with the weather. I was ready for the rain today, but forgot to factor in the wind brrr. Happy running ๐Ÿค—

How typical Soarky66! I have honestly not known what to wear recently, we seem to have had 10 seasons in one day ๐Ÿ˜†. Iโ€™m glad you had a dry run though. All the best ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ.

I had to strip down to my sports bra (in a hopefully hidden area) ๐Ÿ™ˆ take my base layer off and vest top back on ๐ŸคฃBut we shouldn't complain, much better than running in the winter months ๐Ÿ™

Well done and no shame in not wanting to run in the rain. I avoid it at all costs. Running in the rain causes me to feel physically bad the rest of the day.
