Yep,they've probably got better things to do !!!
surely, one would think you would get equally as wet running and walking, because even though the speeds are different, the distance covered is the same, so same rain exposure. However, running, you spend less time in the rain, so less droplets get chance to hit you, therefore you get less wet. On the other hand, more droplets hit your front running, as you are running into them.
Therefore, running, your front gets wetter. Walking, your head and shoulders get wetter. My theory.

Surely it's not how fast you move, but where you move to. What you need to do is keep an eye on the rain drops and dodge them as they come down. If you manage to avoid them all, you'll stay bone dry.
If you can't master this technique, just running really fast stops you getting wet. Your bow wave in the air simply pushes the rain away.
Otherwise.
Since your frontal exposure is directly proportional to your speed, but inversely proportional to the time of exposure, you are better off walking. If you're lucky it will stop raining before you get home. As for the top exposure, once your hair has become saturated, it won't absorb any more, so unless you get home before saturation, any reduction in time will be futile.

thats a bit wet,but did'nt want to rain on your parade
Well remembered !!!!kendor said:Timpsons £15, problem solved
the thing to do is test it.......
2 mates with a bucket on their heads....on walks the other runs...
making calculations for water adhesion to the bucket , it should answer the question...
so we need some prat to try it some time (and no....i'm not trying it !)
