Running in The Rain

The last few weeks the weather in Poughkeepsie has been absolutely amazing to run in. Today, however, was not so amazing. Although I must admit when I'm not running today is my favorite kind of weather ever; dark, humid, and looks as if the sky could burst open at any minute. This is beautiful if your going to sit around and play in the rain all day, not when you want to go for a 5 mile run. The air was so thick it felt like I was breathing through a damp rag the entire time. The whole beginning of my  run I was praying for the sky to open up and for it to rain already! Too bad that never happened.... Even without the rain I still came back soaking wet, from sweat not water. But instead of feeling gross and tired,like you should be after that kind of run, I felt accomplished because I survived my first humid run of the spring/summer season.
