And the Thunder Rolls...

For me the only negative aspect of running is that it occurs outside. And this is only a bad thing when the weather sucks, like today. This past winter was my first winter training outside, and I did a pretty good job, I ran through the cold, snow, and ice. But I still hesitate sometimes. I had planned on doing my 21 km run today but the weather is pretty dicey. I'm ok running in the rain and wind, but I'm nervous about getting caught in a thunder storm with an hour left in my run. This guy I work with is also a runner and he did some intense training throughout the winter, he ran through every snowstorm and extreme wind chill. I wish I was that good! I hate having to rely on the weather in order to get a good run in, it is on days like this where I wish I lived somewhere where there is hardly any weather.
Looks like today is going to be a swimming day at the local pool. 
Luckily, my trusty friend The Weather Network, is predicting sun tomorrow, let's hope they pull through. 
Either way, I'm stuck running tomorrow because I'm running in the Sporting Life 10k on Sunday, so I can't do my long run on Saturday as per usual. Everyone pray for some good weather tomorrow!!
