i was running through discovery park in seattle last night at about 830. i suddenly felt something lightly grab my head and then clinch down on it. when i ducked away from it i saw a big owl flap away and up into a tree. it just sat there and stared back down at me. needless to say i made my way out of the park pretty quick and finished my run elsewhere. i have been running in the park for about 9 years pretty much every day during the summer and this is the first time this has ever happened to me. its happened to my dad too but i never really believed him until now.
has this ever happened to anyone else? does anyone know how to prevent it? like wearing brighter clothes or something?
