The run was planned the rain not so much :)
Anne Margaret S encouraged this.
It is very easy to put off the scheduled run because it starts to rain – but until you have done it you don’t know what you are missing. Get out there and savour this life giving element.

Bridget D Oh just another day of running in the rain! My shoes are muddy and I am content. No sunburn here!
Gavin L When I started tonight I thought that it would definitely rain. Then the clouds disappeared. About 5km in I ran through some water sprinklers and thought that would be all the water I would get on the run. When I was almost home it rained and rained. So finally I have done it.
Jodi D I have yet to catch the rain. I keep going out on gloomy rainy days, and it keeps taking a break the entire time I'm out there. One thing this challenge has taught me so far is that I prefer those wet days. Everything smells better. it's cooler, and as it turns out rain is a poor excuse to skip a run!

Wow I don't know that I've ever got so wet on a run.... Even before the guy in a 4wd showered me in a wall of water! Was great though - glad I went out.

lol, I did the same this morning, pouring so hard when I woke up that my yard is full of puddles and the ditches are way deeper than normal, then it just quit for the 20 mins I was out there, and started back up as I was turning into the driveway! crazy! :)

FINALLY!!! I took this challenge 5 months ago and I missed the rain. There were times it rained after I ran and before I ran and even snowed! But finally today I ran in the rain. Thunderstorm warnings in the area and at one time the tornado sirens went off. But was able to squeeze in 4 miles:)

I'd call it completed ... unless you made the rain stop.

I'm going to wait until I get a good soaking in the rain while running before I hit complete.

Rochelle M This evening in the wind & rain with my son. It was only 2 miles but my boy ran the 2 miles with no walking for the first time ever, so proud of him!!
Vicki B Thought I might have missed this, as Spain's summer looked like it had started, but what started as a bit of a shower when I left the house, quicly became a downpour. Got a few odd looks from car drivers, but it was great fun, and not cold, which helps

Jessie V Any runners from the Pacific North West will find this challenge easy; if we didn't run in the rain, we wouldn't be running 8 months of the year! Running regularly in a hot climate, on the other hand, would be a challenge for us :)
