Running in the Rain / myLot

I went for a run in the rain last night, I love running in the rain but yesterday it was a bit much even for my liking. Plus is was pitch black. I was getting into running quite a lot over the summer but then I got really ill for the first three weeks of October and am only just recovering (although I think I am coming down with something again now). I really want to run a 10km in February, I think I can do it. My only goal is to complete it without Stopping, I can run 5-6km without stopping now so I have enough time to improve, I just need to stop getting sick! And yes I know running in the rain probably doesn't help the sniffles but it great for my mental health!

I'm not a runner. Not even when the sun is shining.

Oh I hate running when the sun is out, I have never understood people running in the blazing sun, when I do run in the summer leave it as late in the evening as possible so it's a bit less intense!

I would die if I were to run that much

You will for sure achieve your goal.

You can build up to anything, I still have a long way to go but when I started I couldn't run half a km at a time

@Shellyjane We should be consistent and not divert from our aims

You are amazing to run at all..I cant run to save my life. I really hope that you can stay well. How about hot tea with a bit of garlic swallowed down or some ginger even..lemon, honey, elderberry..all that can help the sniffles.
