Day 47: Rain & PSU

We are learning to run rain or shine.  This is a definite sign that we are following a schedule because in pre-marathon-couch-potatoe-life, we would NEVER venture outside to run in anything but the perfect weather conditions!  Nowadays, like this night, we ran 4 miles in the rain, after 9:00pm, without a second thought.  The runners were Athena, Alex and I and we did a run to grandma's, preceded by 4 laps around the upper parking lot.  We had a slight "interference" halfway through the run, however, when we came to our turn-around spot at grandma's house.  My dad's truck was in the driveway, so I figured he wanted to run along with us!  That apparently was not his plan.  : )  He was watching a Penn State basketball game (forgive me, PSU fans, can't remember who they were playing against!) and as much as we wanted to stay for the entire game (we'll take a break wherever we can), we refrained.  We headed back out into the elements, and finished the run.  We love interferences like that, so thanks, Dad!
