Rusty, I give you a cue to talk about the walking in Canada and you moan about smarta$$es instead?!? C'mon man sort it out, you're always going to get comebacks if you do that????

C'mon man sort it out and figure out why I do that!!!! 😛 😉

It was only one Smarta$$ I spoke about not 'Smarta$$es!!! 😉

To be honest I love running in the rain. That probably speaks volumes about my level of fitness though!

I can't run anymore but I love walking in bad weather
it focuses the mind
a form of meditation

I'd like to suggest a nice walk in a snowstorm where you can't see your hand if you extend it, that will get you real focused in a hurry!

We don't really get snow as the Gulf Stream terminates in Liverpool Bay. Sounds like bad weather walking means serious bad weather walking for you?

it was beautiful
totally focused and exhilarating

There’s something very rewarding about walking in bad weather.
Great to return home, enjoy a big snack and take a guilt free doze in front of the TV.

I remember orienteering high up in the lake district as a kid when it started to hail and the wind blew it horizontal. I was running directly into the wind. I remember it was really exhilarating.

So your really don't know what really bad weather is is what your are trying to say? You must have some hurricanes?

No extremes of weather at all. I think it's down to the warm current in the sea. An extreme winter is a fine covering of snow for a day. No hurricanes. A lot heavier rain storms this year which was attributed to climate change.

More or less the same latitude as New York but the ocean currents are from the Gulf of Mexico.
