Woke up this morning to a drizzling sound on the window. Thought about getting up.........., then no, staying in bed. I knew I had nothing in the evening, so I can always run then.
MISTAKE! Got out of work and it was raining a pretty steady, hard rain. Looked up the weather when I got home, hoping it would clear up. Unfortunately it looked like it was going to rain for hours. Can't break the streak! Can't break the streak! It's been 71 days, can't stop now because of some rain. Unfortunately it also got chilly, so it would be a cold, rainy run.
Got out there and did the mile! Ran 1.01 mile in 8:49 (8:43/mile pace). That's a pretty swift pace, you can tell I was in a hurry to get it done! :)

WET n WILD.....well, maybe just wet!
Because we are leaving this afternoon for Salt Lake City, we knew that we had to run this morning, as I definitely wouldn't want to run after 8pm after several hours of travel. Bill was a little slow getting up so we got going just a few minutes later than normal, and today that wasn't a really good thing. Left the house and we didn't even get to the east end of the block and it started raining. Then it got a little harder, then even harder. Before we even got to .5 mile, it was pouring! I have NEVER ran when it rained this hard, water running into my eyes, clothes ddrenched, feet soaked. Luckily, since we were .5 mile out, I had no choice but to finish.
Ran 1.02 miles in 9:09.
