I have an excellent app with a map of where I live, it's called "Weather and Radar" it shows cloud cover, rain and you can fast forward it to see when the next rain is due, I find this weather app about 95%accurate.
That is a good app as well, however, there was a day last winter when it was snowing outside, the Netweather app told me the snow was only on the hills above 1500 feet, this new Weather and Radar App told me the snow was above 300 feet which is where I am, so that's the one I now use.
Isnβt that just typical ! I went out at 6:45am today fortunately before the rain, Iβd planned to go out tomorrow, but I looked at my weather app and thereβs a 70% chance of rain here in the morning. Well done on completing another 5k albeit a soggy oneππββοΈ
My weather app said rain at 9, so I left at 8am in lovely dry weather. 2 k in the rain started! Why does this happen?
I am with you not keen on running in the rain. I am now looking out the window to a beautiful blue sky, but I also know if I donβt go first thing I never go π€¦π½ββοΈ
I feel for you, no fun getting soaked. Well done for carrying on regardless. I must admit Iβm grateful todayβs my rest day, but Iβll probably catch the clouds tomorrow. I find the thought of running in the rain is worse than doing it, but I agree never trust the weather app π€·π»ββοΈπ¬
I went out at lunchtime. It said rain in 20 minutes. Guess what - it started raining after 18 minutes. It wasn't too heavy so I didn't mind. I quite like it as long as it isn't torrential
Haha! Well, I canβt blame you for not believing the forecast, they are so often wrong π¬
At least you went out and ran for 5K ππππ Running in the rain has one big positive - the hot shower after you get home is divine ππ
Iβm having a rest day, so was riding my new bike round the garden. Success! I managed not to fall off today π and even tried a gear change. No rush! Going out with a friend on a straight bike ride next to the river next week. What could possibly go wrong? π
I love the idea of you riding round the garden! I remember my daughter learning to ride her bike in the garden. She fell off, got on again....and on and on! Quite a trooper, as you are!
Iβm rubbish! But yes, a trooper. I will do it. I only fell off once, but it was more like a slow keeling over as the bike was in the wrong gear π. I had to google how to change gears.
Reminds me of when I was a kid when me and my brother went for a bike ride. Approaching a big lake on a downward slope, I turned the handlebars but my brother didn't. He did a beautiful swan dive over his handlebars straighti intothe lakeπ
The lake was only 18" deep and a passser by fished him and his bike out. But guess who got it in the neck when we got home?
Iβve been for a lengthy walk today with friend and stayed mainly dry apart from a really heavy shower for about 15 minutes .... enough to soak you! ππ€£
Well done for getting out there Ian and running 5K in the π§ π§ π§βοΈβοΈβοΈπͺπͺπͺ. Lol I must say I timed my run today to miss the π§ did not fancy getting soaked but must admit on the few occasions I have ran in the rain I really enjoyed it.
