It’s ‘faffy Friday’ again...had my running kit on all day...kids off, Daddycav off...they’re working on the ‘Garden project’ that started today...a pond & water feature!! I pottered about, tidying, polishing, wiping vaccing etc....so snatched a run about 5pm...well...I did 5 min warm up, with no instruction today, just my music...it started spitting...but I like rain, I can run in rain....then the spitting turned to rain...proper rain...then it turned into chubby rain....I kept on...trying to run, I could taste my moisturiser my face was that wet...I couldn’t really see 10 steps in front of me, but I carried on...then the rain turned to hailstone!!!!whaaaaaat??? It was sunny this morning!!! Why now??? So I stopped and walked...the hailstone felt like someone was throwing needles at me!!!! Ouch!! I was the wettest I have ever been in my life but do you know what?? I giggled...I giggled to myself because I was wet, wetter then wet!! I couldn’t feel my limbs!!! I must be mad!!!! everything was white with hailstone, I was the only person walking, people in cars were looking at me with a perplexed face!!! I cannot tell you how wet I was but it’s nothing that can’t be fixed by a warm shower & a glass of wine....take two tomorrow...poss park run, who knows?! When I opened my front door the warmth was like a n instant blanket wrapping itself around me... Happy Easter my lovely running family...hope the easter bunny is good to you & the weather is not so cruel!!! xx

I had a run like that last week - no hail though! I didn't realise how wet I was until I stopped! 😀🌧🌧🌧

10 out of 10 for trying. Hope you dried out and warmed up. Glass of wine sounds like a good tonic.

I bet there was steam coming off ya 😁
When you’re wet you can’t get wetter, so you just keep running. You have to laugh. It makes you feel so alive though doesn’t it 😁😃👍🏃♀️
It makes you appreciate home comforts. Warm house, hot bath 🛀 , cuppa tea ☕️

The faffing - a secret plot to be comfy in running gear all day??!! (I used to do exactly the same in cycling gear when my kids were teenagers!) Great post Mummycav! I love the “chubby rain” - but hail... oh no & ouch! Happy Easter, happy running!😄
