My thermometer has hovered right at 32 all day and just dropped to 31. It's been raining off and on all day, but I've been out in it. Getting food for people, offering a ride to one guy walking, and taking pictures.

The power flickered and went out for about an hour once, and when I was out running today a transformer blew just seconds after I went under it. Yes I ran today, it rained the whole time.

It had stopped raining for a couple of hours, I checked the radar and all seemed clear so I was going to run. Mostly just to say I did it, and so other people would see me out running. I suppose that your not supposed to go run in 32 degree rain might also be a little behind my motivation. I've been doing things that I'm not supposed to do for a long time though and it really is more fun than following the rules all the time.

When I was getting dressed I started out getting dressed for a cold dry run, but at the last minute put on my North Face rain jacket and Perl Izumi rain over-gloves. Wise decision. About 3 blocks from home it started raining. at about 1/4 mile from home it started pouring.

God was on to me being vain and was testing me. I kept running. As my legs got wet, then cold, then my feet got wet then cold it dawned on my that I wasn't doing this because I wanted people to see me. I did it because I wanted people to see someone, anyone out in this horrid weather. it didn't matter that it was me, as long as someone was out in it and having fun.

Just after this realization the rain slowed, but did not stop. My heart rate helped in warming me and ice started to form on my hood. What a great run.
