So, have any of you been for a run in the rain yet? I went for a 5
miler in the rain and wind storm we had a few months back. I was
soaked within 5-10 minutes and was out there nearly an hour, but aside
from worrying about my iphone getting ruined in my inner chest pocket,
I found running in the elements surprisingly exciting. What would have
made it better and more tolerable is a decent, light-weight rain
coat. I had a wind breaker on and when it got soaked along with the
rest of my clothing, I suddenly became 5 pounds heavier. A good pair
of shoes with traction is also nice for the muddy trails.
