> School's finally out, and me and one of my friends decided to come up with a plan to get in better shape this summer. We're starting with running one day, then biking the next, then swimming the next. We'll take every 7th day off. There's a triathlon this fall, and we're kinda unofficially training to see if we can do that.

> Yesterday was a running day, and we had a 4 mile route through a big park near where we live. There was rain in the forecast, but we thought it would miss us, so we took off running, just in t-shirts, gym shorts, socks and running shoes. And, well, we're not very good weathermen, because about half way through our run, it started raining. And, I mean, it poured. We were drenched to the bone in maybe 5 seconds, tops. We got some pretty good puddles, and within a few steps, my feet were completely soaked through my shoes and socks, and water was squishing out of my shoes each time I took a step.

> My friends turned and looked at me and shrugged, and I shrugged back, and we just kept on running. The rain actually felt really good, so I didn't see any reason to stop. So we kept going and finished our run. The rain stopped and started a few more times, and by the time we were finished we were totally, 100% completely soaked. Our route ended in a parking lot with a water fountain, and a little dock on the river they used for getting canoes in and out. After getting a drink, my friend wandered onto the dock. I followed him, not really knowing what he was up to. He glanced at me, then shrugged and sat down on the dock, sticking his feet in the water, still wearing his socks and running shoes. "Can't really get any wetter" he said.

> I was kind of shocked that he did that, but I definitely sat down next to him and stuck my own feet into the water. It felt pretty good, and came up about half way to my knees. "Well, what do you think? Up for a swim?" he asked me. Then he scooted off the dock and started treading water. I was kind of shocked again that he just jumped in the river fully clothed. But yeah, I was up for a swim, so I jumped in after him, and we spent a few minutes swimming up and down that part of the river. Eventually we got tired out and sloshed out of the river and headed home. My parents noticed me come in soaking wet, but they just figured I got caught in the rain, and didn't really care, they just told me to take off my shoes and socks outside and not track mud and water in the house. No big deal.

> So basically I never expected my friend would be the one to get me to get soaked fully clothed this way. I'm hoping there's more of this to come.
