Rainy running

[Yesterday 6.5 miles]

I went over to Starkville to run with the Boardtown Runners yesterday morning.  I had a nice run, mostly by myself.  Some fast people zipped by and I got to say “hi”.  That’s a lot better than being on the road all alone.

And back at the house I had a snack and talked awhile.

Then I came home and helped our neighbor with a home improvement project putting up insulation in preparation for drywall.  We did that from about noon until 4 PM.

The run in the morning included a bit of a rain storm.  Running in the rain can be kind of nice if the temperature isn’t too low and there’s not a lot of wind.  In this case I enjoyed it.  It was not hard enough to soak my feet but it cooled things down nicely.

I like running in the snow too, as long as it is not too slippery.  I would say that running in a quiet show shower is probably the best.
