A very short post to get back into this:
In case you were wondering, getting hailed on when you are running hurts.
I've been biking in the hail before, and figured that was pretty bad. You are, after all, hunched over, baring your back to the brunt of the hailstones. However, if you have an ounce of sense, you're wearing a helmet, so it is much more difficult for the hail to actually strike you full on the head.
However, when running, I know very few people who wear helmets. This frees up your head for the full brunt of nature's vindictiveness. Even relatively small hailstones feel like a pincushion's worth of needles striking your head point-downwards.
So let me reiterate: getting hailed on when you are running hurts.
A lot
