You can't change the weather, but you can change your attitude. Focusing on what you can control swings the pendulum from Negative Nancy to Positive Polly. Going into a run or race with a horrible attitude never helps the situation. Reach for wool socks, which are great for keeping that warmth in and won't weigh a thousand pounds when wet. KelRiever To answer the title: Im not usually a negative Nancy but this season has been very frustrating for me for multiple reasons especially the server. No matter how much you try to avoid puddles, your feet are going to get wet, so it's best to wear socks that will at least keep your feet a little warm. If you are running a race, a trash bag or emergency poncho works well too and will make for some memorable race photos! Wicking Socks A light rain-resistant jacket or vest is still a good idea to keep your core temp up and hold in body heat. You'll stay dry from the rain but will end up sweating more, which still makes for a soaked shirt. Jackets that are waterproof work well in keeping you dry from the rain (although not completely dry), but they don't breathe at all. Runners are always searching for the absolute best running jacket for the rain. Or you can toss a shower cap over your hat as we saw so many do in the chilly downpour of the Boston Marathon in 2018. In a healthy thought process, you acknowledge a problem that occurs. However, you also shouldnt ignore problems entirely. This kind of thinking can lead to feelings of helplessness and feelings of being overwhelmed by simple aspects of life. If it's a colder run (30 degrees or so), add a wide headband over the hat to add warmth to your ears. Its common for negative individuals to focus on problems and not solutions. Having a wide-brim hat will help protect your face and you'll be able to see better so maybe you can avoid some of the puddles. There's nothing worse than having rain pellets sting your face and eyes. Here's what to wear when Mother Nature opens the skies on your next run. That being said, most runners are going to run regardless of the weather. Slopping in soaked shoes that weigh 10,000 pounds is not pretty and definitely not peaceful! Even if it is a warm rain, you are going to get cold at some point.
It's hard to find anything peaceful and uplifting about being soaked to the bone after hours of pounding the pavement. There are two types of runners: Those that love running in the rain and those that think it's the most miserable thing ever.īut both sides can agree that it's no fun to be running in the rain for a long time no matter your feelings toward it.
