Last Tuesday I got stuck working until about 6 o'clock. I go for a run almost every weeknight and sometimes on Tuesday I run with the local running club. By the time I got my gear on and headed outside a soft rain had started to fall. It was late June and the temperature was around 80F so it was muggy and warm but the rain had a nice cooling effect. I headed uphill and figured even though I was fifteen minutes late maybe some of the running club members were still at the meeting spot in front of the elementary school. As I got close to the school I didn't see anyone in the parking lot so I jogged through the bus drop off and figured I'd just go on with my usual loop. Just then I heard someone call out my name.
"Hey Charlie." I slowed down my jog and saw Lilly come running out from the school overhang. Lilly was about 26 and part of the running club. She had shoulder length black hair that was almost always in a ponytail. She was about 5'3" and had pretty big boobs. She looked like Mia Sara, the actress from the 80s. She was in pretty good shape and always very friendly. She was one of the reasons I still checked out the running club on occasion.
"Hi Lilly. You the only one here?" I asked even though I knew she was.
"Yeah. I was just about to call it quits but I love running in the rain."
"So you willing to brave the elements?" I asked as I looked up at the sky.
"I'm game if you are," she said with a smile as she started to run.
"How far you want to go?" I asked.
"How far were you going to go?" she said as we trotted down the road.
"I figured 5 miles."
"Sounds good to me," she said with a smile. Lilly was wearing a light blue running shirt that had the "Boilermaker" race logo on it and a pair of black running shorts that showed off her tanned and toned legs. I had seen Lilly out at the bars a few times and we had a few friends in common. I knew she had gone to college and was working some kind of office job. So we chatted about that bullshit as we jogged along. I had a five mile loop that wound through a few of the neighborhoods and had a couple of big hills. As we ran the drizzle turned into a steady rain. We were both soaked and Lilly's blue shirt was clinging to her and really showing off her tits even though she had them compressed with a sports bra. A car honked at us as we ran along. Lilly waived not realizing that it was likely some horned up guy watching her water logged tits bounce as we jogged along. As we ran up hill into a neighborhood where they were building new high end houses it really started to downpour.
"I know I said I love running in the rain but maybe we should head back. This is a little much." She was practically shouting at me because it was raining so hard and so loud.
