I am not very resilient when it comes to bad weather. I don't often venture out on to run on the many rainy days in Auckland. I can't explain why I do this but think may have something to do with the climate change of my new home. Living in a temperate and mile climate leaves me feeling wet, soggy, and on the cold side pretty much all the time. Coming from a very, very extreme boiling hot or freezing cold climate, I just accept the weather and realize it just has to be that way. But in New Zealand, the weather changes by the minute. A hot sunny day can quickly fade to a drizzly and balmy afternoon. It throws me off and my running. I think it's because I'm not waterproof. On the rainy days, I run indoors. Today was another one of those days. I've come to love the tredmill which is a huge thing for me.
It's almost summer though and you bet your boots I'm anxiously awaiting the sunny beach runs that make the rain so worth it.
Cheers!
