Dark Clouds and Then...

I brought the dog in before I left for my run this afternoon because I thought it would rain. Of course the sun came out bright and beautiful. But at 6 miles the dark clouds rolled over me and then the rain came. It was thundering and the rain became heavier and heavier; right when I was running through puddles and my glasses were totally covered, the sun came out and the rain ended. My watch's battery died but I think I went at least 8.2 miles in approximately 1:09. That's 1 hour and 9 minutes. I felt good and fast for the entire run, I really love this time of year. I hope I can break 3:40 in VT. My first 2 marathons were a little slow and I don't like to use an older time for Boston for next year.
