Have I mentioned that I like running in the rain??? How about a monsoon?
The pouring rain was luxurious but the ankle deep water wasn't. Oh well... the faithful tennies are parked in front of the dehumidifier today. That should do the trick!
It was raining so much that I was looking for an ark

I did my 60 walking lunges and push ups and crunches...At work now just trying to make it through the day
