I did have some doubt this morning first thing when I looked out at the weather, but thought, hey, in for a penny in for a pound! So layers on and off I went.

It absolutely peed down most of the way, and running along the riverbank and the paths layered with leaves was a bit of a challenge, but the banter and laughter this morning was infectious, everyone spurring each other on. So grateful to the poor volunteers stood in the wind and rain. But, I absolutely loved it!!!

Must get a better waterproof though. Suggestions please where do you all get yours from, and any bargains out there??

Was has this running habit turned me into??!! πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Your joy shines through your post πŸ€— Good for you!

I don’t wear waterproofs so can’t recommend any but I know that Decathlon is popular, or try Wiggle, or even TKMaxx.
