Thought I'd share a story from Saturday morning...
I set off running into a forest I've never been in before at 6.45, when it was pitch black.
At one point an undefined animal crossed my path. I just saw the outline of its body and the eyes reflecting back my head torch light. I convinced myself it was a cat and not the other option; a wolf that was circling me and looking to call in friends to rip my still breathing flesh from my bones. I didn't freak out and stayed fairly chilled. A little further on I crossed a gate when I saw shapes and eyes in the dark and did get a little panicked. I made a noise a little like 'Aye..argh...fu...ah....oh. The 'oh' was when I realised they were just cows. One of them did moo fairly aggressively at me when I passed them again later but reckon he was moaning about being woken before sunrise.
