I love running in the rain, and I love it when you see people looking at you from their cars, and you can see their expressions on their faces as if to say are you mad

Of course it's going to rain, it's Glastonbury weekend. My poor hubby

Going to put on my new trainers today and get them worn in. I'm off for another powerwalk to see how my knee fairs

I got utterly soaked today - passed a couple of runners and we exchanged ironic grins. It was chucking it down!

At least I found out my Garmin does really appear to be waterproof!
