When its raining out

Unless it’s *really* pouring, I stick my phone in a ziplock bag and go for a run. If my schedule is flexible that day, I’ll try to find a time that has the lowest chance of rain. If it’s a bit cool, I’ll wear a light rain jacket; otherwise, I just wear a baseball cap to keep some rain out of my eyes.

Note that this has only gotten me caught in a hailstorm once. That’s the only time I’ve ever sworn out loud, repeatedly, for two miles.

Sleet is another "fun" one. It feels like shards of glass are falling from the sky if you bike through it.

When it's raining out, what exercises do you do indoors? anyone?

Unless there's a hurricane, thunderstorm or freezing rain I'll still run outdoors but that's me.....what do you enjoy doing that can be moved indoors? I'm fortunate enough to have enough space for a strength equipment in the garage (a little chilly in minter) and my rowing machine, treadmill & bike trainer in the basement. Depending on your space / budget situation a good alternative to consider (if there's one locally) is something like Planet Fitness. People love to hate PF but it's cheap at $10 a month and they have a good variety of equipment with the exception of barbells.

Depends on how hard it is raining. Some of my best runs are in a light rain. Heavy rain I go to the gym and run on the "dread"mill. I live in Oregon, so a little rain is the norm 7 months of the year.

Walking is my daily exercise and about the only weather I won't go out in is when there's lightning. "Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet."
