Running in the Rain

Tonight was supposed to be a typical Tuesday night run at BON.  Well, it was definitely anything BUT typical tonight!

Anyone that lives in Houston knows that weather can change instantly, especially when it comes to rain.  I have driven through treacherous rain in Pasadena on my commute home from work, arriving to my home near the Medical Center where it is sunshine and clear skies.  On the SAME DAY.

That being said, I was not too alarmed when it was raining on my commute home this afternoon.  I figured that the rain will slow down and that the run will not rained out.   I arrive to my running group at BON to cold rain, which is not something I enjoy.  I really needed a run today so I put on my new running hat, start my Garmin, and take off with the running group.

2 hours later after warm up, sideways rain, puddle jumping, and cool down, my track interval workout was completed with over 7 miles.  A small mileage run by any means, but made me realize how much I love to run.

Now, all I need to experience is a good snow run!  Have a great week everyone!
