On cold days, I typically shy away from doing anything active. Sleeping in or lying in my warm bed is my usual way of spending a Saturday morning. But not today. I actually decided to go for my first Saturday BGR! group run in Central Park.
When I exited the train station, I stood there noticing the light shower of rain coming down. "What on EARTH was I thinking?" was the only thought I could muster.
I crossed the street heading into Central Park and waited for the other runners to arrive.
We joked about how cold it was...(further confirming that I need to step up my winter running gear) and took off into the park for our run. I noticed that despite the chill and the rain, I felt fine. My body warmed and it didn't bother me at all.
3.1 miles later I was headed home. I survived my first cold, rainy run.
Success!
