4 PM a storm. It was a light rain when I started but about 3-4 minutes into the run all hell broke loose. It was pouring so hard it felt like nail are been shot into my face. The wind was very strong. I did a U turn and barely returned to campus. As I approached the campus things got more bareable. So what I did was to loop around the main quad which is 0.5 mile loop. I did 4 of these in what seems to be a tempo speed but felt quite easy. I was completely wet so I was running through puddles without even bothering to try and pass in the shallow part. I got lots of weird looks. I cut the run short but it's my cut back week and I didn't want to get sick.
