Running toward a drunk

It's always a little scary to find yourself jogging toward someone sketchy. Of course, most of the time it's just a group of noisy teenagers or a harmless old man.

But when it's a very loud, obviously angry, drunk man at 6:30 a.m. (yes, in the morning) then it's particularly worrisome because there's a high probability some PCP might have been thrown in the mix.

On the plus side, it really tests your speed to try and beat the stumbling man to the intersection so you can bolt left toward home. You stop thinking, "Running fast is stupid," and start thinking "I hope this angry, drunk man isn't armed."
