You can't tell very well in this picture, but my shirt and shoes were soaked. Also, I didn't realize how difficult it would be to see with the rain pelting my face. I considered investing in a pair of goggles to protect my contacts.
Here are some links that I found on my web search:

And sadly, even with all of this security, it can still get stolen...wish me luck!
