Ran 3.3 miles this morning. Alarm went off at 5:00 am this morning. I got up, and put on the running clothes. I then got a text from the guy I run with sometimes saying he could not make it. He had to take his son to early morning band practice. The high school band is a big deal here. I was on my own. Started running at about 5:20. It was a spooky run. The first thing that happened was I went out the door, and the door locked behind me. I thought I hope the garage door will open when I get back. Then I kept hearing strange noises, and voices as I was running. I was running by a church. There was a car in the church parking lot. I thought it is odd that a car would be there this early in the morning. When I looked again the car was gone. Did I just imagine it? At one point I was running past a large tree. Something fell out of the tree as I ran by. I don't know what it was, but it made a loud thud. I just kept running. I made it back, and got in the house from the garage.
