Crazy day, and I'm really glad I found time for the afternoon run. Heavy rain was forecast, and most of Saturday it rained pretty hard. I woke up this morning to a pond in the backyard, a few inches rushing over the patio, and the basement under six to eight inches. It was dumping. I knew I wouldn't get a run in (or much of anything else) and went to work pumping and just bailing water out from the basement to save the furnace. I got things under control and the rain slowed around noon, someone clear a storm drain on our street which helped a lot, and I felt alright taking off for a few miles. Really warm out (50s), which was nice. Did the Warren-Manette bridges route, plus Shore Drive and a little extra to get to 40 minutes. Felt good, ran at a good pace but not pushing. Even broke out some new shoes (since my adidas got soaked this morning accidentally), and got them muddy at the park. 40:22 brooks cascadia 4 -- 6
