My long-weekend seems to have preceded numerous days of rain. And while every once and awhile the sun peeks out from behind a storm cloud – inevitably the droplets begin their splash-down sequence soon after.
Running in the rain isn’t for everyone, unless you’re made of sugar; in which case you might want to avoid all forms of precipitation all together. But if you don’t mind getting a little wet, and understand that you can’t run with an umbrella-ella-ella-ella … then you too can participate in this form of exercise.
Personally I find rain-runs exhilarating. In particular, when it’s much too wet out to risk ruining my trusty iPod, the only available playlist consists of the sounds of the rain and the cadence of my own breath.
There is nothing – nothing but my shoes pounding the pavement on this journey ahead.
Running can set you free … free from responsibilities … free from concerns …
It’s good to remember that the simple act of running doesn’t always have to be about a specific goal. Sometimes, it’s just the act itself that provides the glory.
