MFR 112: Running in the Rain

When you look outside and see that it’s raining, do you reluctantly move on to the next thing on your ‘to do’ list? Do you cheer because now you have an excuse not to run? Do you head for the gym and the dreadmill? Or do you put your shoes on and smile?

Rain provides the opportunity to enjoy your run on a whole new level.

Today’s podcast is about the pleasure of running in the rain, and why you can and should enjoy it, if it’s not already one of the things you treasure most in the world.

 “Anyone who thinks sunshine is pure happiness has never danced in the rain.”

“Everyone wants happiness; no one wants pain, but you can’t have a rainbow without a little rain.”

“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass; it’s about getting out there and dancing in the rain.”

“Some people run in the rain; others just get wet.”

“The person who dances with you in the rain will most likely walk with you through the storm.”

“Childhood is that state which ends the moment a puddle is first viewed as an obstacle instead of an opportunity.” –Kathy Williams
