Ahhh, there is something SO refreshing, calming and peaceful about running in the summer rain. It's awesome. An added bonus is that the usually crowded riverside pathways are pretty much empty when there are the frequent Yiwu downpours. Which was the case this morning, while I went for a slow, easy paced 15km run in the rain. No music, not much people traffic, and no set pace to try to keep to: just running at the pace that I felt like through the drizzle to slightly heavyish rain. I have mentioned my dislike on here for running on the track in the rain, but out on the pavements and by the river is a different story.
Now, yesterday I made a couple of references to a classic song from my childhood, and one that I hadn't thought about in a very long time (until yesterday's email and confirmation of my 19th position at my last race). I didn't even know it's proper title or who sang it, but after a small search on trusty youtube, I've found that particular song! So, for your aural pleasure, well, maybe (and particularly those who don't know this song or didn't hear it as a kid) here it is: '19 Not Out' by The Commentators http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3bl4xaFZMM
Do you like to run in the rain? Do you do it anyway even if you're not a fan?
Did you hear this song as a child?
