Post-rain run

Options
I'm itching to go on a run but it just stormed and now I'm scared of slipping and falling. It's actually a terrifying thought; any tips/motivation?

PS. I've run after it rained once before and I think my shoes didn't slip!

    So go! Stick to the pavement or dirt and you'll be fine. My brother and I ran in the rain on Sunday and it was fine.

    I run IN the rain...and on fresh snow...and ice...

    and I'm pretty sure I've never slipped.

    Enjoy your run :drinker:

    Do it. Just avoid leaves and dog poo.

    Just go run and watch your step.

    The rain can be very refreshing.

    Nothing smells better than the air right after the rain. I say go run and just be careful.
