How many times have I heard that. I wanted to hear from you. Whats the craziest things you have jumped over, ran from, chased, got scared by ? Everyone assumes the only thing of danger we encounter will be a little piece of glass. And the question is a valid one. I just run over it with my 4 X 4 truck tire self built natural treads, my feet. On a serious note I have encountered real danger running bare foot and some nasty things as well. In St Louis last week I had to jump over a dead bloated deer that was about ready to POP. fly's and maggots. In Hawaii I stepped upon toads in the road. In Utah I ran across fresh bear tracks on a solo run. In Hawaii also ran from Nee-Ne Geese that wanted to bite me. In Mexico I ran from what looked like a Zombie pit bull. I had no rock or stick and it was 97 degrees in the shade. I pretended to pick up a rock and it ran away yelping. But glass you say, sure I crushed some last seek I stepped on a 1/3 of a bottle and luckily I crushed it. I was looking at my running application on my phone. (No, I am not a purest) I was not watching where I was going when I heard a crunch. I looked down to see glass on the side walk and parts of it in my foot. I brushed it off with my had and continued my run. I once encountered a spider that was wider than my foot on the Las Vegas Ragnar, tranchula. And on a run last summer in Utah I jumped over a whip snake as it shot under my legs.
