The eye of a hurricane was over us today. Lots of wind and rain. Nature doesn't care that I need to train. But, nature didn't keep me from getting in a short run in the rain this morning before the rest of the bad stuff hit. That felt good to steal the show if only for a moment.
This isn't new. I have always loved running in the rain. There is something liberating about it that I can't explain. This is the second hurricane I have ran in. You would think I would be all grown up by now. But, I hope I don't ever. Childishness in endurance sports really makes me feel alive. Thank you God for storms, hard climbs, and rough courses.
That said, I need to get busy with today's training. There has been too much slack time and weak excuses.
