Running in the rain!??

Post by Casey Harner »

Going out right now in a down pour, have you had good running during a heavy rain?? It rained last night as well with high winds. Seems like we will be covered in rain all day.


Your opinions!!??

My cousins and me went out when it was pouring. Dogs ran good and jumped a bunch of bunnies,but it was miserable.

being in construction you only get off when the weather is miserable and usually raining. So I run a lot in the rain throw a rain suit on and away you go. The dogs definitly don't mind and we always seem to get rabbits up. Go get em!!

Grabbed 2 dogs after church,4hours of pounding started rainIng I stayed. Got 2 8month old pups that didn't seem to mind at all. Makes jimbo smile, even if I am soaking wet.

Some of the best running I have had was when hurricane Irene went up the east coast. Heavy downpour and lots of rabbits. I called Steve Shipman and he thought I had lost my mind.

By the time I got to the spot it had stopped raining and the winds picked up. They geared down and ran one back to its hole after and hour and fifteen minutes.... Not bad for dogs who haven't reached two years yet..
