Yesterday was a run locally between showers & rain, but in a light drizzle. Checked out the flooded river which has since yesterday caused the road crossing at Point Hut to be closed. There is so much water about, it will take a long time to get back to normal levels.
Today, still raining so took the soft option ( again) and stayed indoors in the gym at work.
It took some convincing by head to overrule heart, but I did 15 kms on the treadmill. So boring, no lack of change of scenery, conditions, or even a visit by a fellow gym user.
It's nice to be able to hog the treadmill for nearly 90 minutes without others wanting to kick you off, but it's very much a once off due to the rain.
Looking out of the window, it actually stopped raining for a couple of moment. That's when I thought I should be outside getting drowned in the rain.
But, my other consideration is, I'm no bike path runner. I like the off road, and the off road is a mud heap & water logged.
Glad to have finished the runnning Ok, no problems physically, but it did my head no good. Finished with a good weights session, so a nice 2.5 hours alone to catch up on much needed exercise.
Hopefully the rain with disappear before the weekend. But where to go will be the next question to be answered.
