      • Anyone ever encounter big foot, El Chupacabra, Nessie, Champ, Montauk Monster, Jersey Devil, other mythical creature, or experience paranormal activity while out on a run?

        What's the strangest thing you've encountered while running?

      • None because I’ve never been running while under the influence of psilocybin.

        Although that sounds incredibly fun and I will try it at least one before I die.

      • First place I went to hike and run after moving to this area. Before I knew anything about RUE I often times felt a presence but not at the lighthouse keepers residence. Above the lighthouse there is a section of trail that always raises the hair on the back of my neck.

      • I was running in London after not making the final in the steeplechase at the 2012 OG, so I went for a run. I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand walking through the streets of SoHo in the rain. He was looking for a place called Lee Ho Fook's gonna get a big dish of beef chow mein.

      • I once got passed by David Moorcroft in his prime while running on a London street in the early 80's. Does that count as a mythical experience? I also got passed by the actress Joanna Lumley. Walking. Far better than a Sasquatch.

      • Years ago I went out for a run in downtown Ethiopia ( Past the 7-11 and Shell station) when I saw it..... the fur.... the stench..... the sideburns... I knew then I had come face to face with.....(gulp) the dreaded DIBABA!! I was able to get away by dropping some spare EPO viles I always carry. A narrow escape for sure.

      • I once saw what I later learned to be a creature called ‘Jamin.’

        Still have nightmares about it.

      • I’ve seen a number of topless hotties, definitely mystical creatures! Also have found $100, a dead body and an Irish wolfhound.

        Most of the stuff you mentioned involves being high.

      • Never knew that runner's high is similar to shrooms or LSD. Or more like the psychedelic effects of heat exhaustion.
