Make It Rain

The weather gods are smiling on me now. Perfect day at Newport yesterday...not a cloud in the sky but not too hot. And today...it's overcast and a slight rain started on my run. There's something to be said about running without a defined schedule. Every run feels pretty great. And unlike past visits to New England, when I've struggled with the humidity and hills, today was different. I felt fresh, strong, and just plain happy.

I am not sure that too many people in New England are happy to see precipitation these days, but I couldn't be happier about it. It's the first time I've run in the rain since Eugene. The delusion might even be strong enough to make me start training for another marathon.
