It seems like the month of June is going to be a washout. The rain doesn’t want to go away! Every time we get a little respite and the sun peaks through the overcast, I find myself outside gazing to the sky. Usually this time of year the weather is more compliant, a bit more predictable for New England. I find myself needing to be flexible and just go with the flow – in this case the weather patterns.
I am doing my best not to let the weather derail my exercise plans. On Monday even though it was raining right up to my golf lesson I decided not to cancel. Low and behold as I was practicing putting the rain suddenly stopped! A miracle – it stopped for my entire lesson. I would have endured the rain if it was a drizzle or a shower. I don’t think that I would have been able to golf in a downpour.
Don’t let the weather get you down. Do your best to get out and do what you enjoy. If it’s running – go for a run, biking – get on the bike – golf – go to the driving range. Of course – you want to be safe and sensible when exercising in inclement weather. We can appreciate that the weather teaches us to be mentally resilient. We get out despite the rain and we feel that much better than staying indoors moaning and groaning about it.
