I went out running in the rain Tuesday afternoon. My co-workers kept looking at me like I was crazy as I was getting ready. "You know it's raining, right?" "Yes, I know. I have a hat."
I actually really enjoyed it. I set my Nike+ to do a 5K, and went out. A few people I know saw me, and so I ran a little faster...
I love my Nike+, but I can't help wondering if the pace and distance aren't always accurate. I'll be running along, thinking I'm going at a good pace, and it will tell me my pace is 12:34 (I think I could walk that...) Other times, I'll be going steady, and it will announce that my pace is 8:30. Okay, whatever.
I can work around this, though.
Now, if there was heavy flooding, I don't think I would be out in the rain... but a nice drizzle (I put my Iphone in a plastic bag for safety...)
I don't know if this makes me hardcore, but I think it shows that I love running so much, I'll do it even when it's a challenge....
And, the last time I'll say this, I promise...
If I was a little slow, I'll just *Blame it on the Rain*... (groan)

Way to get out there! I have a hard time summing up the motivation to run outside when the weather is bad!
Great play list! Thanks for stopping by today :)
