One more reason not to zone out while running- a swarm of bee's
So, I was doing my 2 1/2 hour run and was about an hour into it. I was running along a leve that had fields on both sides of it. I had my hat down over my eyes to catch the sweat and I was looking down at the ground in front of me. All of a sudden looked up and I was in the middle of a ton of bugs. Its not unusual to run through a swarm of nats out there, so it took me a split second to realize, these weren't nats... they were bee's. It was suddenly very dark. Its amazing what adrenalin can do for you. I turned around and started sprinting back where I came from. I even think I was waving my arms.
I think my thoughts went like this.... "dum dum dum... boring..... crap bugs.... wait.... HOLY CRAP these are BEES. RUN!"
After running 50 or so yards, I turned round to see a huge cloud of bee's. In a few min. they all flew away and I continued running.
The good thing is that I wasn't stung.
So, the moral of the story is, don't run into a swarm of bee's. Its really not that fun!

You didn't get one sting? Wow! Go buy a lottery ticket, today must Bee your Lucky day
Thanks for the reminder, next time i see a swarm, I'll run the other way! I probably would have done the same thing though
