Running in rural areas

WTF..... No leash laws in the country?

Needless to say my morning run wasn't as long as I intended.

My heart rate monitor said my HR was too high, no $hit!

I actually carried a stick for about two miles and kept looking for any movement.

It wasn't fun......

I bought some mace after a dog encounter. Of course, since then I only get attacked by the pocket purse poodles.

Glad you're ok.

So far I have only encountered bad dogs on bike rides where I can usually pedal away quickly.
