Chords Of Life

I’ve started doing some middle-distance running since the last 6-odd months and some of my co-runners used to keep talking about how wonderful it is to run in the rains. Well, today I got my chance to sample that experience, and have to agree completely with my friends. Sure, most of us have enjoyed getting drenched in the rain some time or the other, but somehow, running (and I would imagine any competitive activity) in the rain was different. We all know how much more fun it is to play football in rain. 

It was cooler for starters. You feel less de-hydrated. And at the end, I think its mostly because we enjoy getting wet anyway.

Maybe I enjoyed it more simply because its otherwise quite boring to run!
