Running in the rain

Why do we do it? Why do you see us, the runners, in the rain, or the snow or the dark, early morning in the freezing cold of Canada? What is it in us that gets us out there to do "it", the art of running?

Not because we are proud, vain, or stupid. We do it for the love of running and getting that "runner's high". When you come back and your cheeks are red and burning, your legs feel mildly shaky and sore, and you feel sweaty and hot. You feel good inside. The endorphins are there and you know you've done something really good. That's what drives me out the door on a day like today
Periods of rain ending early this evening then cloudy with 30 percent chance of showers. Clearing this evening. Wind north 20 km/h. Low zero celcius. High on Thursday 11 celcius.


Hills with the group from the store tonight, if Tim gets home on time.
