It's been a (really!) wet and windy day today and I've seen more people than normal running outside.Here's are 3 tips for getting your motivation up for running in the rain:
1. Get someone else to go with you. Having someone else to motivate you will go along way.
2. Reward yourself for it.
Give yourself a giant pat on the back for going out when it's wed
3. Enjoy it!
Seriously!! Look at everyone else who goes past you thinking you're crazy... being one with nature is fantastic and jhust think of that nice warm shower when you get back.
A few extra useful tips for rain running
Remember to wear a hat, this'll keep your head warm and the rain out of your face. Wear a water proof/wind proof jacket, preferably a high visibility one. When you get back from a wet run, take off your running shoes and stuff them with crumpled balls of newspaper. This helps the shoes keep their shape, and the paper draws moisture away from the shoes.
Stay Healthy,
