Same here, love the rain, don't like the sun. (well not for running purposes anyway!) This is my first winter running but I have a sneaky feeling I will make excuses when I see snow or hail

I don't mind running in the rain - but when it's rainy and high winds, like it has been over the last few days I won't even go out. I'll hit the treadmill in the gym instead.

Don't like rain when I'm about to set off.No problem if it starts when I'm out.
Do the Scottish ones amongst us ever get the chance to run in sunshine though?

LOL hot foot, I love winter running, although not to fond of the high winds we have been having. My Sunday long runs are usually 7mins/mile but at one point on sunday I was running hard into the wind doing 9:30 min/miles.....character building they say

For me it's a hot sunny day closely followed by high winds.
Give me a cold/wet day anytime!

Wind really annoys me. Cost me PB's in 2 races this year!

I tend not to get affected by hot weather, however, usually during the summer my hayfever/asthma plays up, so the 2 go hand in hand.
