Finding a Body while running... Almost happened to me once
A while back when running trails with a couple for friends I saw a car parked in the middle of no where with way too much snow on it. I told my friends that this wasn't good, and I bet its stolen or there is a dead body nearby. Little did I know that a couple hours later when my buddies ran by the car, it was being towed away and a body van was there with some State Police vehicles. The story that hit the news that night was of a lady who was found just a few feet off the trail where we were going to run but didn't. The trail crossing where we found the car now is very memorable, but little did I know that this is a national problem.
Here is an article written a few years ago on this very subject: Nations Joggers sick of finding dead bodies: The Onion
I do not just sit around thinking about things like this. One of my favorite Bloggers: Scott Dunlap had a similar event happen to him lately and he wrote about it on his blog: A Trail Runner's Blog- Check it out
Have you ever found anything interesting while running?
