Running in the rain!

[Sadeskin]

EDIT: Since writing this post I have been out running in the rain! It was fine, quite liberating actually. My only issues were glasses (didn’t wear them due to rain) and I had a long sleeved running jacket which made me too hot. I’ll know what to do next time!

I’ve never ran in the rain before. Today is a run day and I need to get it done before I run (haha) the risk of not fitting it in. Should I keep waiting or just risk it?! 🏃‍♀️ Will it be a disappointing wash out or a surprising challenge ... 🤔

It is not too cold today, so you will probably love it.

Another new experience for the scrap book.

Thank you! Am about to go. Last question - can AirPods get wet?!

[IannodaTruffe Mentor in reply to Sadeskin]

I am sure they can get wet, but whether they should and whether they will survive is a couple of other questions to which I do not have the answers.

They were fine Ian. I was looking for excuses I think. Not got the most positive head on! The rain wasn’t an issue at all it was actually quite liberating! Thanks for your replies

I love my AirPods -- but I think the "open" part is actually in your ears so I'd be surprised if they got too wet.

[Sadeskin Graduate in reply to ejvcruns]

Thank you. Yes I think you’re right, they were fine

Go for it ! I now don't bother after getting completely soaked on week 2. You'll get wet but once you are it's quite liberating 😊🏃‍♀️😊

Go for it, I say! I have run in the rain a couple of times now, and as long as it's not really cold, it's fine! Makes you feel very Amazonian. 😀

Go for a splashy run but put air pad somewhere dry?

[Sadeskin Graduate in reply to Hidden]

The AirPods are earphones, the important part is in your ear so they were actually fine! Turns out I liked running in the rain 👍🏻 Thanks for he encouragement

Go for it. It's a new experience. In fact, my fastest times were in the rain because it kept me cool.

[Sadeskin Graduate in reply to Hidden]

It certainly did! Great that isn’t it? Interesting to know you got your fastest times in the rain. Thanks 👍🏻

You’re welcome. I hope the weather doesn’t put you off your runs.
