I feel like I'm being stalked by Mother Nature! I have never run a 5K when it wasn't raining or snowing, and the forecast for tomorrow morning, when I'm running a 5K at the zoo? That's right. Rain.
Admittedly, running in the rain is kind of nice. But it tends to keep away the slower runners and I find myself at the back of the pack all the time! I just hope it doesn't get rained out completely. |

I don't understand abbreviations too well.
Just wondering about J.D. piper. Does that stand for "Job Description" ?
MTA: Also a lot of ladies seem to use "DA' on here. Does that stand for "Damn Husband" ? or "Designated Hitter" ?
I'm serious. I'd like to know. |

My guesses:
JD = Juris Doctorate
DH= Dear Husband.
Though my wife may prefer your first suggestion for the latter abbreviation. |

Just run, baby.
So much for my brilliance. |

Mine is "dork husband." He's a mechanical engineer.

Juris Doctorate. In other words, law degree. I just graduated from law school and like Trishie, am spending my summer studying for the bar exam.

Congrats and good luck tomorrow in the rain.
I've been hoping for a race in the rain. It's been very dry here in TN. I haven't run in the rain ALL year.
Send some of it down here, K. Wish it on me and I'll give ya credit when it does.  |

Running in the rain is great. Makes the sweat wash away!  |

50k today in wet sand, torrential rain and wind thanks to Tropical Storm Barry. That makes for hard work but good stories! And yes, it definitely washes the sweat off. |
