I have yet to run in the rain.but posts on the forum say people love it, and find it calming.

Well done on your consolidation run.

I too am struggling with motivation post graduation. Think I miss the app, and weekly challenge. I'm going to look into stepping stones. .....stamina

I love running in the rain lol. I can only do morning runs at the weekend and I find them so much easier, the two runs in the week are straight after I finish work, so I have less energy, so my plan is to try and do 30 mins for the evening runs and push a bit longer at the weekend.

I find trying out different playlists to listen to, plus we use the map my run app with under armour and just have reminders every 10mins, plus Iโ€™m lucky to be doing this with my husband and he keeps me going.

Good luck with your running ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜€
