Had a scare this morning.  I was running (it's dark and I have my headlamp) when all of a sudden two men were running full speed from up behind me.  I jumped to the other side of the road and faced them with my mace ready.  I was about to yell "I have mace!" when they kept on going by me.  Scared me to death!  I started running behind them (a good distance) and tried to figure out what they were doing.  Turns out they must have been late for a ride to work because they stopped about a block away where someone was waiting in a truck.  Got my adrenaline going!

Always scary to run in the dark, smart girl, carry that mase. I always carry in the dark, I have never had to mace a human, a few dogs have got the mace.

That is scary. Good idea to keep that mace with you.

What a fright! Reminds me of the time on the dump road with the van & big tarp.

Keep that mace ready for action!!
