Hi all. I am hoping to get some good suggestions on a good running pant I can wear in the rain. I've had gore-tex suits in the past and they were always too hot when it rained. I have a tight that has water proof coating on the front but the tight as a whole does me no good when it rains. What do you wear when it is in the high 30's to high 40's and raining? I'm trying to find something light and as close to water proof as possible. Thanks.
I've had some success with Goretex paclite pants. They are a little heavier than ideal, but much much lighter and more flexible than regular gore tex
Wear shorts - less to get wet. Once your skin is numb and bright red, you're all good. Also provides motivation to finish up and get out of the elements.

I was just on a site and saw some Nike Storm Fit pants. They are for Golf, do you think they would be ok to run in? Their Storm Fit Golf jackets looked good too. Anybody run in Golf rain wear?
Bump. Any suggestions.. I need a good rain pant.
Try peeing in them and see if they are fast drying
try using saran wrap. Don't forget to wrap your nose and mouth- make it air tight. Good luck!
You can fashion a rain pancho out of a garbage bag by punching holes for you arms and head.
So after you finish your run you go inside, take off your waterproof pants, and jump in the shower. Think about it.
Bare legs or lycra tights are all you really need. Nothing waterproof is going to breathe enough for running. Getting a little wet isn't going to kill you.
That's pants
I have the Nike Storm Fit golf pants and jacket, but primarily use them for golfing, not running. The material is a nice flexible, lightweight fabric that I think would be comfortable for running. My concern would be breathability on a long run. Probably similar to breathability of most Gor-Tex though.
