Since i discovered i really like running when its raining, but hate feeling of wet socks, what would you recomend? Are there some waterproof / neoprene socks or that would be a really bad idea?

I usually run mostly on road plus a bit of gravel, else i would alrrady get a pair of something like hoka speedgoats or similar.

Have you tried "tightening" socks? When I began running I had blisters almost every time I was running. And with those types of socks, I rarely have any blister on my feet. I also don't really notice a difference of efficiency between when it's raining or not, so I think you could try that.
