Jungle running....

Went running this morning on the island. I guess it is important to mention that this island is a dot on any map and very small. Small enough and rugged enough that there are no roads or motorized vehicles 1) because it is small (I think I mentioned that) 2) it is remote and primitive and c) the island itself is a jungly mountain. So back to the running on the trail. The trail itself was close to the coast and hilly. What made the trail so interesting was that is was through vines, low trees, and overgrown plants. I thought the entire time that I was going to be snatched by a snake and/or giant lizard which are all over the island. There is nothing like getting squeezed to death by a snake or attacked by a 5 foot lizard to keep you humming along the path. It was fun and a good time to start the morning off.
