I'm hoping for rain a week from Sunday, when I run my 5k in Austin. I'm used to running in temps from 30 to 45 degrees, and the low for that day is predicted to be 62. Shocked Rain would be a good thing. Maybe the weather forecast will be wrong, and the temperature will unexpectedly fall to 40 degrees that morning.

So yesterday I ran a near-12 mile run in the rain. A total of 2 1/2 inches of rain fell during the morning, quite a bit during the run. While on the route, I saw a number of waterfalls where normally there are none.

This is what running in the rain reveals -








Just sayin'

Co-workers: wow that's long!

Shan: Nah, that's stupid!!
