Hi everyone! I'm still running but overwhelmed with work and life to have enough space to run as much as I'd like to. However, this morning I got up just after 5.30am and didn't have to be anywhere until 8am! Whoopee! Rain wasn't going to get in my way so puddle jumping (well.....dodging) it was! What fun, great 5k and running in the rain was fabulous. I can thoroughly recommend it!!

I was out running at a similar time yesterday in the rain. I actually love it when it’s wet, think it might be my preferred weather to run in lol

I love running in the rain. It makes me feel like a hero and there’s nothing like it to make you feel really alive. I’ve always found that once I’m so wet that I can’t get any wetter, it become so ridiculous that I’m out that it becomes fun. It’s also wonderful seeing other runners out in the rain. That nod and smile of solidarity means everything!

Massive well done to you. Hope you also feel like a hero!
