So I have been on this running routine as I train for some long distance stuff. Well, the treadmill is great for a couple miles, but much more than that is really boring and hard on my knees. So I went over to Rincon on Tuesday to run a few miles... had a great time and enjoyed being outside. Well, today I went back to experience it again. So I ride my bike to the track and I begin running. I start to notice the track is a bit funny smelling, but I figure it's from all the rain and cold or something. So I am just rounding out the halfway mark of my first 1/4 mile when I hear this voice. "Hey! You can't be running here!" He yells. I am just looking at him like what is your deal. Then he proceeds, "Did you not see all this?" I look up and the part of the track that is backed up against the school has a fence with big plastic stuff on it so that you can't enter. Mind you, on the other side where I entered is completely open, no fence, no plastic. I shook my said and explained where I had entered. "Are you stupid?" He asks. Meanwhile I am just staring at him while mentally ripping his head off and stomping on it. So then I apologize again. He says, "LEAVE!" So I start to finish my lap back to my bike. He then yells at me to leave the other way. (I AM HALFWAY AROUND THE TRACK- IT DOENS'T MATTER WHICH WAY I LEAVE!) So I explain where my bike is and he yells at me again saying I am costing all this money for him and to get on the grass. So I turn to the grass and he's still yelling at me. So I just run back to my bike and ignore him. So there are a couple things that really get my blood boiling. 1. My tax dollars are paying for the stupid track that I am ruining. (Although I wasn't ruining it... I am a very careful and light runner...and I it hadn't been just paved or anything. I don't even know what stupid project they were doing) 2. I am 24...you don't have to belittle me. And it really gets me that I am sure he thought I was a student. AHHHH 3. I hate people like that. All he had to say was, "Do you mind running on the grass today?" 4. I went home crying. :(
So I hate mean men.
