Watching all the people cooped up warm and dry in their cars, staring at you as if they're about to call for the medics and the strait jacket...

Blackers Sep 2006 4:28pm, 25 Sep 2006 0 posts	Quote Pin Blackers Yeah I like the rain too but not driving rain with strong wind. Come to think of it, don't really like running in strong wind particularly racing

Lyns Sep 2006 4:49pm, 25 Sep 2006 0 posts	Quote Pin Lyns Rain is great for a training run but i blame the cold pouring rain at the massed start of the Glasgow Half for my injury - it was just sooo cold and really not possible to get/stay warm in the start pen. But on a training run when you can ease into it and also slow down on the mud then it's great Like Blackers though, hate the wind and horizontal driving rain which unfortunatley is the kind we mostly get up here!

libby Sep 2006 6:14pm, 25 Sep 2006 0 posts	Quote Pin libby Sometimes rain is good, but I only really like it if it starts when I'm already up and running. Very hard to persuade myself out into rain, I find. Quite a painful 5 miles today, have been really out of running recently, time to get back in the groove!
