Give the rain a try

My PR for a 5k was a whole minute and a half faster than my old time, because it was raining and I fucking wanted to get out of it as fast as possible more than anything.

I hate running in the rain. It's harder to breathe. If I step in a puddle my whole shoe and sock get soaked and sometimes I even get gravel and shit in my shoe. I find the feeling of the rain and wet clothes and shit makes me like, hyperfocused on I guess the physical sensation of existing and a lot harder for me to zone out and just run. I'm worried about my phone getting wet the whole time.

I like that it's usually cooler and not sunny, but then I'd rather just run right before it rains.
