Running log-11
Distance: 5 miles
Location: outdoors
Time: ~70 min
Shoes: wr12+ sports insole
Memo:
Yesterday my running is like a summer breeze, nice and easy, 4 miles of paved trail and about 1 mile of hard road. If it was not getting darker, I would have run two more miles, my goal was 7 miles. Anyway, not much to talk about running itself, but where I have run through is quite peculiar. I have planed to run towards Coralville Dam, but, by mistake, I ran, crossing river, into a area where I have never been to. It's close to I-80, but hidden in woods and secluded from traffic noise. The road is two-way wide, and seems quite used before. But at 8pm Friday night, besides cars parking along the road shoulders, the only moving object on the whole road was me. I was a little bit scared, but I saw houses ahead, which cheered me up to keep running forward. the houses on the left side are crappy, and on the other side are pretty high-class, one of them even have a huge lawn and a pond with a fountain. Are they,the poor and the rich, getting along with neighbors across street? this idea flashed over my mind for a second. And, in the next second, I saw a big sign standing beside the road: "Private property, entrance permit required." I was not sure if the road was included in that private property or not, but I kept running. The road got harder and harder, more stones on road, and eventually the road disappeared , a dark forest instead. A ominous intuition arose in my mind. Leave here! I turned around as quick as I can. Later when I got back home, I searched on google map, and found that area is for elk-hunting. Wow, I never know there is many elks so close by, and not to mention the elk-hunting so close by.If I entered that dark forest, driven by curiosity, would they rich hunters have the right to shoot me, just like shooting any elk on their private land?
