This article was quite interesting. However their is one facter that was missed. Since running and walking are human factors you forgot about the water comeing up from the ground. As everyone knows while running in the rain you tend to hit a lot more puddles and since you are hitting the water with greater force more comes up at you. This is a small detain but one that has to be taken into effect.

Is this the column you’re referring to?
Any similarity in the above text to an English word or phrase is purely coincidental.
yup that is the article I was referring too.
Why would that be? Not that I’m necessarily disputing the fact, but I was wondering what your reasoning is.
I figure it this way running in the rain you may get less wet but with all the grime and garbage in parking lots and streets these days there is way more of a chance of falling and getting soaked than walking
