Running Along the Coast of Cabrillo

Ran 4 miles last night along the Coast of Cabrillo Beach. It was strange at one point. There was a car that made a few u-turns and proceeded to follow me. It was strange since there were not that many vehicles in the area. It was also very dark (around 10:30pm). The person probably thought that i was a woman. Especially with my long hair put in a nice neat pony tail.

Regardless... he high beamed me at one point and i looked at him straight in the eyes. I think that is when he realized that i was a man (with facial hair and not so pretty). I expected to brawl... but he would have been in for a surprise. I have over 12 years of martial arts training, i've taught almost three of those years, i have a Black Belt (which really isn't as important as my passion for fighting - i believe in the art of self defense and i love confrontation) and last but not least... i had my knife with me).

Bottom line... nothing happened... which is ultimately good. Because you never know... he could have had an AK47 in his vehicle and i may have not been able to write this experience. I am always thankful to God!
