AM: Not sure if I’ll do a second run but for now AM. This
was a mental strength easy run. Meaning let’s see what I’ll put up with. I did
get an extra hour sleep last night which is great. Also, my knee felt perfectly
normal this morning?! I won’t complain about that one. I did get into work
early with the plan of running right away. However, I went to set-up one thing
and 15’ quickly blossomed into 1.5 hrs. So I finally got out about 8:30am. Now
here comes the mental strength test. One mile in the rain started. This wasn’t
too bad as it was just over 50°F. Then at 2-miles it started hailing, not large
hail (actually only rice size) but it stung. By 3-miles the hail stopped but
then it got windy. Luckily that didn’t last long and the last 4-5 miles were
just wet and by then I was cold. However, it was a great run. It was fun being
out there and I like the challenge of the weather. Mi 8-R1 Avg. 8:04
PM: The answer was yes. I can't get enough of this rain. It is so nice to have some moisture in the air again... I can't believe that I actually sometimes miss the sweat of St. Louis summers... I just did a very easy loop around home. Mi 4-R2 Avg. 8:14
