Windy, wet and wonderful
I heard the rain when I woke up for the first time today and it made me want to go back to sleep for another hour. So I did. But I really do like running in the rain, so I was secretly glad when I left and it was still raining--not too hard at that point. And it was chilly! Loved it.
The wind going over the first bridge of my run was pretty crazy. It was blowing my tank top up practically all the way so I decided to just take it off, even though I was cold. I felt kind of hard core when I saw people wearing jackets, vests, etc. on my route. My knee had been pretty sore yesterday, so I wasn't expecting much, but I actually felt better than I have in a while. I was relaxed and aware not to do anything weird with my stride--maybe that helped. Either way, I finished feeling good, which makes me happy. Then I swam for a little while since I knew I wouldn't have time to do that this afternoon while I am studying and waiting for my Reach the Beach friends to arrive. I was definitely thinking of them while I dried out this morning!
Back to the books!

Wow, good for you for embracing the bad weather. I'd be one of those wusses wearing a jacket. I'm waiting for MY Reach the Beach "friend" to arrive home, I can't imagine how miserable the event must have been!
