Best fun in the rain ☔️

Morning everyone! So… it was raining heavily this morning and obviously being the weekend, I was not too keen to go for this run W7/R3 but I dragged my reluctant self out with my daughter and actually had the best run! We said ‘let’s just give it a go and come back if it’s horrible’ I am discovering that you just never know how each run is going to make you feel unless you get out there and give it a go. Personally, I thoroughly recommended rain to anyone who would be put off and roll over back to sleep! It was honestly the best feeling. Have a Great weekend ☺️

I absolutely love a rainy run. There’s nothing like it for making you feel like a superhero for being out. It’s even better if you meet another runner when you’re out and you give each other the knowing nod of “we are both heroes”!!!

Great run!

I've always declared myself a fairweather runner and won't set off if it's bucketing down outside. However a few weeks ago I got caught in pelting rain about halfway through and ... well, now, I don't think I have an excuse. I still prefer good weather (and actually don't mind running when it's hot) but I know I can run when it's tipping it down.
