4:30 am 'long run' with David and Gordon.  65 degrees and humid.  8:59 mpm average.  1422 feet of elevation gain.  We started on Bourne avenue as we normally do.  Then we hit the 914 bypass around Somerset.  Kind a scary occurrence this morning.  About an hour into our run, we were on the shoulder running opposing traffic discussing the possibility of getting a new timer for the half marathon next year when DAVID JUST ABOUT STEPPED ON SOME DUDES HEAD.  Its dark and we are out a ways from town.  It took a couple of seconds to process what just happened.  Of course we turned around to go back to see what was up with this guy.  He appeared to be a 20 something white guy all tatted up.  Gordon shines his head lamp in the guys face and leans down to talk to him.  He is unresponsive and  eyes half open.  We do notice light breathing, also a knife in his pocket.  Did I mention we are out in the middle of no-where and its pitch dark.  David and I are a bit timid and back off.  We decide to waive down a car to call 911 (none of us brought a phone today).  Cars are few and far between at 5:45am on a Sunday.  Plus no one wants to stop for three random dudes on this stretch of road.  Finally a guys stopped and called the incident in.  We waited until 6:16 when a guy from the city stopped by, but still no EMS.  Yes 30 minutes and no EMS.  

Later we find out that the guy recently was released from prison and was living with his mom.  Mom had enough of his games and took him to the local church.  The church and this guy didn't see eye to eye so he left around 4:45.  He must have walked on this road until he passed out.  He spent the day at the hospital.

What a morning.  We had a good run though.  Needless to say, our conversation was centered around this for the rest of the run.  I was a bit late for church as well.

5am run with David and Gordon.  55 degrees 4x1.5 mile repeats. Garmin issues again.  Time to send both of my watches off to be rebuilt. The first two were under 10 minutes.
