Running in the rain is not so bad

OK, is it just me or does something change in your perspective once you are actually out in the rain?  Tonight, I went for a run with Sally our flop eared smiler (dog).  It took a while before we got out the door because it was raining outside! Oh-no, not rain, I might melt.  Finally, the skies cleared out a bit and we took a chance and headed out the door. 

Sometime during the run, it started raining again.  Funny thing is, I didn't even notice it started and when I did I only felt refreshed by the rain!  How crazy is that shift in perspective? My expectations of a little water were keeping me from something I love and that refreshes me!! 

I know next time it rains I will probably pause for clearer skies but maybe next time my pause will be slight and my run long! 

Wishing you clear skies and refreshing rain,
