SERIOUSLY?!

Good Morning.  It's Jaime.  So you've heard about the beautiful running trails we have here in Arlington.  Well, since I'm on Spring Break, I decided to join Wes for part of his run this morning.  When we run together lately, we'll usually run the 1st mile together and then Wes will continue on and I'll turn around for one more mile home.  NEVER AGAIN.

Prepare yourself blog readers, it is no longer April Fools, and I would never joke about something so scary.    This is what I ran, correction, rapidly sped like the freakin' road runner, past, shortly after I left Wes:
Now, there wasn't any blood on the mask, and it didn't protrude out as long from the face, but his face was completely covered.  Plus, the man I saw had a full camouflage trench coat on and was carrying a soda pallet.  
I, of course, informed Wes of my sighting as soon as he returned home and lo and behold, he saw the "man" as well, no longer walking, just hanging out on the trail, sans the pallet.  Weirdo.  Wes' sighting involved a ski mask and goggles, rather than a WWII gas mask, but regardless, the man was super suspicious.  We called the police, just to be safe.

Needless to say, I achieved my shortest timed mile on the way home, which is a good thing, because it will be my last.  Back to yoga for me.  This is just about the scariest thing you may find on a yoga mat...


Namaste.
