If you get caught in the rain, do you run or just ignore it and walk?

Sometimes if I get caught in the rain I just have to run...but then, what the heck...let it pour!

It depends on how heavy the rain is. If it's only a light rain, I can ignore it and walk ahead. However, if it rains like cats and dogs, I have to find somewhere to stay until the rain stopps.

If I got caught in the rain alone, then I will love to continue my journey without worrying about the rain.Infact, I love to get wet in the rain, enjoying the every drop of the rain. But at cases, when I get caught in the rain along with my family, then I will try to take a shelter as quickly as possible both for me and my family.

i run to the nearest place where i can find shelter. whether it's a restaurant, a coffee shop, mall or just a simple place where i can be under it so i won't get wet. i hate being wet on the rain when i am out. but when just at home, i even sometimes go out and have fun in the rain... anne

I used to have fun in the rain, too...if only there were no floods these days, that is (I live in the city) Thanks for commenting!

As I love rain so every one can not see me crying =) I will not run anywhere and enjoy the fullest I can from rain and walk in the presense of rain. And I even want my girl with me walking in the rain so we can have a great life ahead =) anyhow, dreams are dreams they never comes true! This is what my believe is and this is what I think like. Hopefully, every one loves to walk in rain instead of avoiding rain because rain is something almost everyone loves to be in. Anyways, have a very good day! Happy earnings.

well.i love rains specially the first rain at the season and would like breath the air when the first rain starts.Now generally when the rain starts heavily i will run for a roof but in my childhood we playing a lot in rain.we were singing and dancing in the rain.we were making paper boats and playing with them.I dont carry umbrella with me because we cant guess when it rains and sometimes i caught by the rain and have to wait till it stops.

If it is not heavy, I will walk in the rain and enjoy the smell of earth. It seems more fresh after rain. But now I often use an umbrella, because I have a bad health. I am easy to get a bad cold. I hate to eat medicines or take an injection. If I can take a bath after walk in the rain, I hope I can take a walk in the rain.

It never rains particularly heavily here, from what I've been told, and I've just become accustomed to walking in the rain. I will wear a waterproof jacket if I know it is raining when I leave the house, but I don't carry an umbrella ever.

When we were young kids we used to play in the rain a lot. I love the rain! When I get caught in the rain, my reaction mostly depends on where I'm going and what time of day it is. If I'm going somewhere important then I have to run because it means I have to get to the place as dry as possible. If I'm just going to a store, then I don't care -- I'll just walk in the rain and enjoy it.
