Thought I'd share this post from a running post on reddit...and I thought the British weather could be a pain! 😳

I don't know where on earth this person lives but personally I'd suggest buying a treadmill!!!

Don't think I'd be running the same track as the mountain lion .

I agree the new location would be behind closed locked doors on a treadmill 😁😁

Just had a look where that might be, North or South Dakota or Nebraska in the United States.

I guess this guy is running both fast enough for the lion to not catch up, while at the same time running slowly enough to not get knackered and so eaten... this person doesn’t have an issue!

Unless of course the lion is clever enough to work out that the best way to get his dinner is to simply turn round and run the other way.

If the guy does a couple of loops the mountain lion could just sit with his mouth open and wait for dinner to come to him. I bit like I do at MacDonalds 😉

Love it! Young mountain lion playing with its food!Seriously, I would have quit after finding the tracks for the first time..our daughter’s tales of grizzly bear encounters have given me great respect for the power and speed of wild carnivores!!

Crikey! We can’t complain can we. I did have to vault over a snake once. Ok it was a grass snake but I didn’t know that 😁
