Should you walk or run in the rain?
Say it's a rainy day and you want to stay as dry as possible, should you walk in the rain or run in the rain? Walking in the rain would mean that you are travelling slower to your destination, meaning that more rain drops will hit you, so you should run, right? However running in the rain basically means you're just running into the rain anyway, you're not escaping any rain. If you move out of the way of one rain drop, you move into the way of another, so the number of rain drops hitting you is constant no matter your speed. If you don't understand this properly let me explain this better, if you think of rain as something that stays still in the air, it doesn't matter if you walk into that rain or run into that rain, you're still getting into it. If you don't actually go anywhere, and stay still, you will be drier than if you run/walk because rain is only hitting you from the top while if you walk or run rain is also hitting you from the side. Now there's the time factor, if you want to get to one point to another then the time factor comes into play, its a known fact that the longer you stay in the rain, the wetter you will get. Walking in the rain and running in the rain does mean you will get the same amount of rain drops on you, however the longer you stay in the rain, the wetter you get, therefore running will decrease the amount of time in the rain thus meaning less raindrops than walking.
TLDR? RUN IN THE RAIN
