Great job g...Darrel,<BR/><BR/>You can't be a rain wimp dude! Great job getting out there! I use the little square bandaids to prevent a wet running shirt from sanding my nips off. Runners nipple is like the equivalent to a paper cut in the office. It seems like it can hurt more than blowing out your knee.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work and I'll see you at the finish line in Eugene! I hope you will wait for me to finish!Journey to a Centumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06294889164059934956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19138585.post-60070583647362610732007-02-25T20:01:00.000-08:002007-02-25T20:01:00.000-08:00Running in the rain can be so fun (sometimes)!!

I use paper tape on mine for runs in the rain or anything over 10 miles. Cheap and effective and easier to tear off than a bandaid. If you want more details, email me!! The same stuff works great to prevent blisters as well. <BR/><BR/>Dang, that was a good run in the rain for you. I'm sure pleased. The track work, side stitches or not, is helping. You are indeed preparing well for Eugene. <BR/><BR/>And isn't it cool how the wider community can help each other?? i sure appreciate it too!!!Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13512468867035574112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19138585.post-10868186525406594092007-02-23T13:27:00.000-08:002007-02-23T13:27:00.000-08:00Glad you overcame your rain phobia and got out the...Glad you overcame your rain phobia and got out there for an awesome run!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10790953201589664954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19138585.post-51865220241832250382007-02-23T11:57:00.000-08:002007-02-23T11:57:00.000-08:00sweet, that's awesome you got a "primal" run in :)...sweet, that's awesome you got a "primal" run in :) running in the rain, yay!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19138585.post-5352956075620468352007-02-23T11:20:00.000-08:002007-02-23T11:20:00.000-08:00You've got a 20 miler planned for Saturday?

I don't think it will happen. I'll try to remember your run in the rain!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19138585.post-10315584404256228802007-02-23T08:45:00.000-08:002007-02-23T08:45:00.000-08:00Yeah, those of us in WA think the same thing - run...Yeah, those of us in WA think the same thing - run in the rain, or never run at all. I've whipped my shirt off twice - once at the beach when I didn't know anyone and I was over dressed, and at the R2P relay last year when it was 99. I was with two vans of runners I knew, but was so hot I didn't care. Didn't do any good, I still overheated the ticker. <BR/><BR/>I think about bloggers and their comments while I run too. It's funny how someone you've only met online can offer that "oomph" to go that we sometimes need. <BR/><BR/>I think you are doing great Darrell, and I don't think your modifications will hurt your training. Eugene is creeping ever closer...Backofpackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13779487553272296752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19138585.post-74027037617715191392007-02-23T08:44:00.000-08:002007-02-23T08:44:00.000-08:00Great story below Darrell!Sound like an exhilarati...Great story below Darrell!<BR/><BR/>Sound like an exhilarating trail run! I'll take that warm rain any day, if you did that here in New England your nips would have frozen = ) I agree running can be very temperamental sometimes!
