Hi all

What do glasses wearers do for running in the rain? Ideally need mini windscreen wipers but don’t think they exist yet. Baseball cap🧢 ? Visor?

Cheers me dears xx

I just ran through it and left my glasses to get wet. The drops are ok for me as long as I don’t try to “smear” them off.

I’ve found my ex’s “visor” (a fabric, topless baseball cap) in the glovebox of my car and use that to shield the sun but I guess it would work to keep the rain off. The headband would get very soggy though.

I like the challenge of not wearing mine lol! Guess I can still see enough without to be safe.

Hi BethMay

I have a Karrimor rainproof cap its black and pink that I wear got it from Sports direct,although it was some time ago.

I got it because I wear glasses as well.

I have a rain proof jacket with a hood but I have a small head and it comes down over my eyes.

That’s the opposite of me because I always have a high pony tail so my hood doesn’t fit over my head:( plus if it does I look like an alien lol
