freakin' pigs

got in the longest german run so far this past weekend. 25 mins with the fam and then another 70 alone. also had a top 3 epinephrine moment at about the 60 min mark as i was charged by a wild pig. looking back, i'm quite impressed with speed of this ornery beast. he (?) got within about 5 meters and then for some reason decided it was no longer a worthwhile pursuit. he obviously saw my hugeness and sensed certain defeat if he were to continue on his path. i spent the remainder of the run talking myself out of returning with a spear and showing this guy who the boss really is....
apparently, a pack of these guys live in the forest across the street from our pad. i've passed some in the past with no incident but it looks like some of these crazy germans may not be so crazy - telling us to beware of these wild swine. the whole episode gave me a strange craving for bacon. this guy's not the culprit but i bet he's related....also pieced the road bike back together this weekend and headed out for a short 60 min ride along the isar. was good to be back on the bike....next up, tuning up the gary fisher.here's a photo from pbs....sweet august snow up at brainard lake back in colorado. really miss this time of year in co.
stay phat.
