Started out as a prefect day for a run. Temperatures were cool and the air was clean from the evening's storms. I decided to run up to Davis Blvd. because I love the smell of the canyon after it rains. Things quickly turned ugly about 6 miles into the run. The wind picked up, it started to rain then turned to hail. Once the lightening started I was getting worried. I couldn't decide if I should head for cover or get home as quickly as possible. The wind propelled hail hitting my face was painful and my feet were soaking wet from sloshing through the puddles. Finally made it home soaking wet, freezing and I loved every minute of it.
