<p>... it felt easy and then I got runner's high. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>How does that happen?</p>

If we knew we would all only do it that Way<br><br>
Remember it. Bottle it. Use it when times get tough

<p>Yeah, moments like that are enough to keep me out there doing it, for sure, when nothing else will.</p>

<p>I find that I am energized more than normal when I have this false expectations set it my head, but when I get out there and slip into that zone, a place with no expectations, things are far better and more enjoyable than I at first thought. And this feedback with energy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It seems to me that many folks have this notion that running in the rain is hard, or is not fun. Glad you aren't one of them.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>With this recent spate of rain, I've now had 4 or 5 straight runs (I did doubles on Tuesday and Thursday) in the rain. It's a mindset. If you think it'll suck, it will suck. If you see it as just another day, it will be just another run.</p>

<p>Nice job, Dougie!</p>

<p>Even though I get tired of running in the rain from October to June, I do generally run faster when wet.  Not on purpose or anything, I think my body just doesn't have to spend so much energy cooling off.</p>
