A) Keep running and ignore her...because HEY! I have to get the time Russ wanted me to get on this 800! I can't stop now!
B) Try and give directions while you are still sprinting to your finish (shes in a car...she could drive along while you explain how to get to Concordia...)
C) Stop and help the old lady...come on...its a poor old lady!!!!
well...this happened on Tuesday to me...so what do you think I did? ahha. yeah your right. Im nice so I stopped...but, I ALMOST kept goin...I kind of pointed in the direction and kept running...then I realized how stupid I was being and I stopped and walked back to her car window and talked to her. haha. ahhhh. you never know who you will run into on your running adventures! But if an old lady ever stops you and asks for help, well, sorry Russ, but sometimes you need to earn your brownie points for the day!
:)
I would try to answer while still running...definitely wouldn't stop!
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite experience with this was when I was running north on Lake Shore towards CUW, about a mile from campus, and some guy pulled up beside me asking where Concordia College was. I pointed straight ahead and told him to drive towards the big teal-and-tan chapel tower.
