It was raining at 5pm (my usual run time .. Get me saying "usual" its starting to sound like a habit) anyway, it was raining - I remembrred a post I had read from someone who just said they ran regardlrss of the weather , so I thought '$@d it',and ran anyway. Quite challenging run 3 mins continous - a lot of heat generation going on. Oh! how I loved that rain in the end at.

Yes indeed - the mystery post inspired me today and like you say - it does feel liberating running in the rain

I remember reading a comment from someone on here saying "your skin is waterproof so run!" I actually quite like running in the rain now! ☔️ I'm glad you enjoyed your run in the rain!
