struck by a vehicle

Wed, 10/30/24-

6M (48:30). I cut my run short today after being struck by a vehicle at the intersection of E. Mermaid and Winston. So much the headlamp and street lights! I was coming down E. Mermaid, and there were two cars approaching from opposite sides of Winston. I assumed both would stop as I entered the intersection. Once stopped; the other blew right through the stop sign. Thank goodness I saw him in time to be able to speed up and jump into the air so that the car didn't catch my legs or knees. Instead I landed awkwardly on his hood and kind of bounced off. He got out of his car, and the driver of the other car stalled a bit. The offender was clearly shaken up, as I scolded him, lightly I might add, before he apologized for doing a "California roll" (through the stop sign). Realizing I was shaken up, I gathered myself and ran another 4 miles...at 8min/mi pace.

Oddly, my watch read 3.87M, not the usual range of 3.77-3.82M! (31:10), en route to the fitness center. 1.2M back home (9:30)
