I haven't had this issue yet because I used a treadmill during the winter, and since winter's over, the weather has been really nice.
Well, it's been raining all week and tomorrow is my long run (13k- just starting off with half training). I canNOT do it on the treadmill. I think I would die of boredom.
I also don't want to miss it, and I doubt I'd do it during the week (because of work).
How hard of rain are you willing to run in?
What do you wear?
Re: Running in the rain
It's not that bad running in the rain. I live in Seattle and don't even own a running rain jacket. I just layer up with a tank, wicking shirt and maybe a light pullover jacket (depending on the temperature). I survive.
However, one time it was POURING and cold on one of my long runs, at about mile 10 I called DH to pick me up because it was so dang cold and wet out and I was freezing!! But usually, I just run.

I've been soaked to the skin before even leaving my street before.
As long as I have the right gear and some anti-chafe smeared on, it's NBD. I won't purposely go out if it's thundering/lightning, but there has been a time or two when I've been caught in similar conditions, including hail. Just makes me run faster.
