There's no greater feeling than working when most aren't. Running in the rain is an amazing example of this.

I recently started running and today was my first run in the rain and it felt absolutely amazing, the sound of rain drops falling, the sound of footsteps and the absolute calmness because nobody is out there. It was like meditating. I have never been so happy!

[@wesleysellers2110]

I just want to say, I started running the same year that this video was posted. I went from overweight with 0 ambition, to incredibly involved in fitness. This video inspired me to get outside and run no matter what the weather, and that shaped my whole life so that I can get out there and do what needs to be done, regardless of the climate. It has also done a lot to strengthen my faith and walk with Christ. This little video touched my life in an incredible way and had a crazy snowball effect

[@jasminanreca8291]

Thank you for encouragement

Wesley you are an inspiration. My life balance hangs on running . Surprising benefits of running it makes the entire life disciplined

[@user-yn4og2er7c]

I run in the rain because it makes me feel closer to nature, I know I'm one step closer to my goals while others are lying on their comfortable bed waiting for the sun. Running in the rain without shirt is the best thing a man can experience, during your run you have time to sort out your thoughts & reflect on life

[@kimberlyannnn]

Not a dude, but I agree, I LOVE running in the rain before everyone is awake, especially in the summer when it isn't freezing out. It makes me feel closer to nature, too.

I love running in the rain. Here in the Midwest though, I would like for it to be at least 50 degrees and warmer. But I have run several 1/2 marathons in pouring down rain, and when the shoes finally get water logged, I am in the groove knowing I am soaking, soaking wet and all is good.

[@JonMo94]

Even though my country is going through a horrible drought period right now, I've had days where I've had to run under the rain. One night the rain was so hard that it literally felt like needles were sticking to my face. Every time it starts to rain while running, just think, is life any different? When the shit hits the fan and more problems arise, am I gonna just stop living? When it rains, am I gonna just stop running?

Today's rainstorm, and strapping on my shoes I was reminded of this video. I remember listening to this years ago, and finding the motivation to take another step. ❤ Thanks Eddie for all of the inspiration all of these years. You helped create the warriors that we have today.

[@randomuser1105]

I go out whenever the least people are out, whether the weather is terrible or it's late at night. It's not because I'm motivated (though I am), it's because I'm antisocial. :)

"but your out there when everone else is warm inside and theres value to that" awesome, thanks i was starting to doubt

[@harrystratman3861]

This is my new motivational video. I ran in the rain yesterday and today. I love running in the rain now.

[@MortadhaTunisian]

So you look outside right, and the first thing you see through the window is that the running conditions are terrible, they’re far from ideal Your first inclination is to go back to bed, wait until it warms up, maybe hang tight until the rain or snow stops, which the majority of us would find completely reasonable by the way But let me explain this scenario from a different angle, because this is the exact situation when it’s most important to get out of bed, to put your running shoes on and to head out the front door There is an undervalued benefit that comes from putting yourself in an uncomfortable situation From forcing yourself to be just a little bit irrational When you look at those who have been successful, what separates them is that they do things and they make sacrifices that others would not They’re the people that study until 4am Or wake up when it’s dark outside to practice free throws Whatever the specific skillset may be, the pattern is always the same, they were willing to pay a price that most wouldn’t, they wanted it just a little bit more So what could this possibly have to do with running in the rain? It has everything to do with it Why is it that when you run outside on a cold, rainy day, no one’s out there? It’s not because you’re doing anything that in itself is great or heroic, you’re running alone because it sucks, it sucks to run in the rain right, to have cold wind blowing in your face, that’s not relaxing or enjoyable, it’s uncomfortable But you’re out there when everyone else is warm inside and there is value to that Training yourself to follow through with your ambitions regardless of hurdles, because life will not always be comfortable What are going to do when things get bad? You lose a client at work, your girlfriend leaves you, you going to stay in bed? Cause there will always be a reason to wait for later, to hope for smoother waters ahead, the best though, they achieve in spite of undesirable conditions Then suddenly, meeting your goals has become a habit, not something left up for chance You don’t even look at the weather right, the forecast becomes very little significance to you So it’s cold, great, you’ll wear two sweatshirts, but you’ll figure out how to get it done And I’ll tell you, when you take those shoes off and head to work, or practice or wherever your day takes you, that mentality does not leave You look at things differently You know, you’ll realize that 99% of the reasons we give for not doing things they’re excuses, they’re meaningless If you want something, do it, and guys that’s not a cliché, that’s the key to success, find a way to get it done And the best part, when it’s finally 72 and sunny, and the world is outside ready to run, you’ll have lapped that place so many times that you’re not even on the same level You have been to hell and back and your performance will make that apparent That’s how you become the best So is it just a run in the rain? You tell me

Time to run in the burning summer heat. I will never let circumstances dictate my behavior. Rage against the dying light.

[@Promagin]

+Black Eye Lol. You literally made that up, training in the heat is amazing for your body.

[@pepsicolla123]

+Promagin no it's not. your body dehydrates and loses important minerals too fast, so it's not healthy for your muscle (especially heart). also, your bp drops, so you even might faint. it's not funny. if you really really wanna run today, run during the evening or morning, but not afternoon

[@Promagin]

Ruta J There are benefits to training in the heat, but there are also risks. You are far more likely to overheat / heat stroke / dehydrate when exercising in hot weather. However, if you take the proper precautions, there are benefits to be gained from training in the heat. What's more, these benefits will directly impact your success. A study was recently published by the University of Oregon into the athletic benefits of training in hot weather conditions. Specifically, they found that: Heat acclimation improves the body’s ability to control body temperature, improves sweating and increases blood flow through the skin, and expands blood volume allowing the heart to pump more blood to muscles, organs and the skin as needed. Interestingly, they found that this hot-weather training had improved the performance of the test group in cold weather conditions by as much as 7% for both the cyclists and runners. I would say training in the heat is perhaps the best thing you can do to improve your performance. Once again, I cannot stress enough how important it will be to maintain proper hydration and not overexert yourself in the heat.

[@MichaelJohnKoontz]

I agree the hydration is such an important part of running in the heat

Once it was raining, and I mean pouring, but and I knew I still had to run to get it done. I ran 8 miles on one of the busiest trails in my area and to my surprise, I did not see a single person until 5 miles into my run, and only 4 people on my whole run. That experience motivates me every time I see people running on a nice day, because it reminds me how far only I was willing to go for my dreams. I love running, and nothing in this whole world can stop me from it.
