W5R1 day today and the weather has been awful. I'm afraid to say I chickened out of running in the rain, the wind, and the wet, slippery leaves and went to the local gym and used the treadmill. Still I did it, and I must admit it didn't hurt my lungs as much. Hopefully, we won't have too many wet days as I could get quite use to running I side, though I would miss the view of the hills and the sea.

You are lucky, I'm on the coast so it is quite often windy and there are also a lot of hills
