Our Weather Policy–Rain

Seems like only last week we had forgotten what rain was. Now, the slow-moving weather system has caused us to think about what happens to our plans when it rains.

Some of our most enjoyable runs are in the rain. The rain’s been so long in coming, we’re inclined to run around in it like little children.

So, for our policy: we generally run/walk, rain or shine; the exceptions: if there is lightening at our venue when schedule to start, or if there is reliable prediction of stormy weather (hail, lightening, wind, etc) headed toward our venue…then we will likely call the session off. Otherwise we enjoy running in the rain.

The pacing session for tonight (5/27) is another possible exception: it involves having some electronics on site and some papers and pencils. None of those things handle rain well. So, today’s rains MAY effect our evening session.

Best thing to say for now (3:30pm): plan to be there (Claremore High School Track); If it is actively raining at 6:00 pm we may may call it off, or hold off for awhile if it looks like it will stop raining. But for the timers and records to be kept dry it looks like a wonderful day for a run/walk.

TRAIN FUN!
