    A friend of mine was running down the trail on Friday afternoon around the BBQ place and a guy popped out from the side with bloody feet and no shirt... asked her if she "had a whistle." She ran away and thought she had lost him. She sent me an email to let me know what was going on and then he popped back out and chased her down the trail for a few minutes.

    Prior to encountering this guy she passed a woman who warned her of a weird guy ahead. As she was running from him a few police cars were coming down the trail and apprehended him before he got her.

    Whoever this other runner was who called the police, hopefully this message finds you... thank you! I can only image what would have happened if she didn't place that call.

    He was close enough to be grabbing the straps of her pack.

    Does anyone have any more information about the arrest or should we just contact the sheriff's office?

    So scary! If any ladies are looking for a running parter, look up Ashburn Moms Run This Town on Facebook. It's a great group of women that run at all paces and really support each other. People are constantly making running "dates" and there are regular group runs and other events.
