Soaking

I haven't run in a soaking rain like today for a long time. On a warm day like today, it's actually fun to get totally poured on. I was just about midway through 8 x 1 mi. when the sky just opened up. I definitely ran faster because of the rain. The only bad thing was that my shoes got soaked and felt heavy for the last 2 fast miles.
After a two mile warm up, I was able to run faster than last week, and do one extra mile, without feeling any extra effort. The mile splits were: 5:59, 5:57, 5:49, 5:53, 5:50, 5:45, 5:49, 5:48. (5:52 avg.) Total time for 16 was@ 1:56.
