RobBob Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 As the sun rises later and later, I find myself running in total darkness at least two mornings a week. I live in a very remote area, with a two-mile approach road that borders parkland and dense woods chock full of bears, cougars, and badmen. Anyway, being tired of jogging with a flashlight in hand the entire way, I put on my petzl zoom this a.m., and cranked the beam to a narrow, piercing focus. (yes, it was heavy & the battery bounced on my melon.) Two minutes out, I noticed a dramatic difference from previous runs...there were eyes every couple of hundred yards in the woods, staring back at me. Absolutely freakin creepy. Next time I will return to the comfort of the little flashlight in hand, loudly slapping my shoes as I run, and be blissfully unaware of the critters. Best part of the morning was seeing moon, mars, AND a big shooting star, just like Dru was talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissNormandy Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 You should just tie a bunch of empty beer cans around your waist to drag behind you... that will keep the boogie mans away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
