Puddle splashing joy

First run in the rain and I loved it.

I had been dreading the inevitable damp autumn morning but it was bliss to run though cooler air with refreshing rain.

Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t torrential, that’ll be a different matter.

Today was my 2nd run of week 2 and I really enjoyed and didn’t stop before she (Jo Whiley) told me too. I’m so proud and a little bit tearful.

Hope you all have a beautiful day runners xxx

Great job... light rain is so refreshing. I used to like to get out in a thunderstorm but probably more in the summer.

Hey hey. Good int it 😃👍🏃‍♀️ Buy a running cap and a lightweight run jacket they are cheap so no worries They keep the worst of the rain off
