Today I was going for a run with a friend. The plan was to go for the long 16km round, but in all the chatter we got lost. We kept running east instead of west, and what prevented us from really checking our phones were these fucking flying parasites called deer fly. Once we stopped we were attacked by hoardes of these buggers. And they attack immediately. And they are almost impossible to kill. You have to get them between your fingers and squeeze real hard.
But after a while we found a nice big field and a little less deer flies attacking us, and we had been running the wrong way for a long time, and we were almost out of the county. Luckily we found a nice gravel road that lead back to the main road and we decided to just run alongside the road home instead of continuing the forest trail. If we had done that it would have been a 20km run, and we were not quite ready for that today.
Yeah, and I stepped on a snake. A young specimen. The only poisonous snake in Norway- a common european viper.
