I don't normally bother with anything special, I'd prefer to get wet from the rain than get all clammy and sweaty in a waterproof coat. I've got a lightweight adidas jacket but it's really only showerproof and I generally don't bother. I wear a baseball cap though if it's raining as I don't like my specs getting wet!

Same. The jackets I've got that are waterproof are sweaty and horrid. Breathable jacket too bulky. Have a Nike lightweight jacket that's ok but gets and stays wet after about 40 mins. Tend to stick to drifit type tops they don't get too sodden and just get, well, a bit wet! Cap or headband good to stop rain running into eyes. Always think a bit of rain makes for nicer running than blazing sun!

I just get wet too. After the first mile you stop noticing, I think.

I wear normal running gear plus high visibility gilet which is very lightweight. I wear a baseball cap too, keeps the rain out of my eyes brilliantly.
