rain thwarted my race!


i race for fun and i was supposed to run the badgerland striders 1/2 marathon this morning.  supposed to is the key here.  i didn't run because it rained all last night and well past the start of the race.  

i was really torn between going and staying home and ultimately i opted to stay home because i knew i would not get anything close to enjoyment out of running a race in rain and cold.  i purposely end my race season in october because i hate racing in cold weather.  i hate it with a passion!  so i chose to stay home and not race today.

i would be more than half way done with the race right now but i would also be soaked to the bone and probably miserable.  i'm going to head out for a run shortly and hopefully i will be dry and warm enough where i will enjoy my run.  it seems to have stopped raining but it is still cold and very moist outside.

this weather is decidedly not my favorite.  in fact, i think it may still be raining.  *sigh*
