Get wet and carry on.

A run in the rain is sometimes fantastic and does wonders for pace.

Enjoy!

Just get out of the wet clothes as soon as you can.

Running in the rain is the best! However, get out of those wet clothes and into a warm shower ASAP when you get home!

Avoid if feeling under the weather but otherwise go for it. Light rain jacket if needed and get out of wet clothes quickly afterwards (plus a warm shower is the best feeling when you get back home).

Keeping warm is spot on. Don't let your muscles get cold afterwards...

Get changed as soon as possible after the run and avoid getting wet in the winter. That could hurt you in a bad way.

All the above

But as Jell6 says keep away from deep puddles as they may be hiding a deeper hole. Take it from one who found out the hard way. Running in the rain is indeed the best but limping home in the rain is no fun.

Not what you're looking for?
