Tempo, shall we?

I checked the weather, 70 degrees chance of light rain. I noticed it was raining but figured it wouldn't be a big deal. I grabbed the garmin but left the ipod at home and started out. The rain was light for about 2 minutes of my run, the first two. Then the downpour started. I felt like a little kid outside playing in the rain. The people driving past me thought I looked like a moron. The only problem with rain running is I kept inhaling rain in my nose and that doesn't feel good. The added water weight in my shoes really bogged me down and made hitting my pace a little extra work. The 11 mph wind didn't help much either.

Splits:
1-8:47
2-7:53
3-7:42
4-7:37
5-7:22
6-9:04

Yesterday: an easy 5 on the treadmill, 9:13 m/mile
