dodge goose
while the title of this post doesn’t refer to the latest playground game for elementary schoolers, it does refer to an encounter i had with two geese about eight miles into my saturday morning run. my route was out and back on the fox river trail in the greater green bay area. as i made my way along the paved trail, an open field was being patrolled by two canadian geese. since they were at least 50 feet away from me, i didn’t pay much attention to them as i approached. i must have been too close for their comfort zone as they began to race towards me hissing and flapping their wings. thankfully, i was able to sprint clear of them without incident. this time of the year those birds are awful aggressive.
