I had good intentions. I knew it
"People will judge you by your actions, not your intentions"
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions"
I did the 1 mile walk, stopped at a nice warm bathroom and I swear the rain quadrupled in quantity. I stood under the cover outside the bathroom and just stared at the river for about 5 minutes. Then I turned around and did the walk of shame back to my car. I was already a
I need to get a hat - soon! Surely that would make me feel better. And I need to find my microfibre sweater that seems to do a good job of keeping most of the rain on the outside. The yoga style jacket I had on last night was cute, but provided no rotection or warmth.
So now I need to do a 3 mile run when I get home from work... and before I go to my friends house for Girls Night (whoop, whoop - I've assigned myself the Designated Driver so it will be a pretty mellow affair for me). Saturday I will do a 3-4 mile run during my daughters pre-game warm-up. And on Sunday I have 8 miles on schedule, hopefully with a new running buddy. I also have a horse to show Sunday. It would be nice to have a somewhat dry day.
A couple days ago the weather report for Sunday called for 50mm of rain (that's nearly 2 inches!). Though yesterday that was revised to 25-35mm and today it's revised to 5-10mm. I'm praying to the weather gods that the predicted rain amount will keep lessening to NIL or so.
I'm thinking of setting up a paypal account and a donation website to collect funds for Heidi's Wet Running Clothes Charity. No?????? Maybe I could organize a run in my honor???? Sell my used tissues on ebay? Go door to door with a collection box? :)
Have a great weekend! I'm excited to be running 8 miles this weekend. I haven't ran that far since June.
Keep Active!

Ooh, Heidi, hope it doesn't rain on you - you've had enough!
Woohoo on the 8 miles!!!!
(Just in case it does rain, wouldn't it be nice to curl up in an electric blanket once you get home (and dried off, of course)? Or at least a heating pad...
I feel for u as I dont do rain ~ drizzle I can do but rain...nope.
Good luck with all the weekend running..have lots of fun...we meeting Saturday morning and Sunday, and I think its going to be in rain as well for our runs.
I hope you get some dry running mile sin! Way to go on 8 miles!
Good for you for trying!! It would be easy to see rain and change plans right away ;o) Hope you have a great run this weekend!
That's some crazy rain! I don't blame you... sometimes it is just not fun being soaked to the bone. Hope it dries up for you this weekend!
seriously the rain in FL is nutters...and yes somedays I can enjoy it, other days I just don't feel like being soaking wet and that's ok. Just find an indoor workout like kickboxing!
Have fun in the 8 miles. Hope your weather is good.
We don't have that much rain as you do but we have it frequently. They say this winter is going to be either very wet or that we are going to have a lot of snow. I prefer the rain in that case.
I wouldn't mind to give a donation for Heidi's charity, you deserve it.
But first: get a hat!
Hoping your 8 miler went off without a hitch! Running in the rain can be hard, but sometimes so refreshing too. I love my nike hat, and it's been great for any weather.
You haven't seen Jesus in any of the food you've eaten lately, have you? I hear that's a good seller!! (giggle)
I LOVE rain, and haven't had the chance to run in it yet this year. I always seem to luck out....well, to others it's lucking out...me, I'd like to catch the rain every once and a while at least. :-)
