I Have Been Attacked

So I finally went back to the woods for my workouts after a brief period of waiting for the rains to stop....bad idea....SO bad.

So first of all, I can barley recognize the trali because of the wild growth that has trippled in volume and area coverage. There are pieces of trunks, branches and trees strewn all over the place making it like an obstacle course. So I am doing fine until I get 1/2 way thru and discover and mini-lake in my path with trees on either side. Shit. I can't get through. So I backtrack a bit and take the shortcut to the paved path.....bad idead. Because the path is stren with mini puddles some of which are very deep. Luckily, I can maneuver around the foilage on either side that is somewhat dry. Bad idea. I run into TWO spider webs. One of a yellow/orange consistency (I don't want to know) and the second I walk into FACE FIRST! Now, I have no problems with spiders, but this made me recall every adventure/horror movie where characters walk into spider webs and all sorts of nasty things happen to them. I see the road ahead but am confronted with a HUGE puddle. I walk through mini-shrubs and thorned wildlife wanting nothing more to get the path, which I do. Keep in mind that through this all I am being pelted with mosquitoes, tiny flies, gnats, and grasshoppers who have no problem smacking me in the face....THREE times. I felt caught in the crossfired of some lilliputian insect war. Good god. I will be staying away from there for a while. I may hate the treadmill, but this is one day when nature opened a can of whoop ass on me.
