I got Attacked by a Crow at the Track Today

No bs. I was doing a tempo session today and during one of the breaks a frightening looking crow was perched up on a fence, looking directly at me, and cawing loudly. I was like wtf?? So naturally I reached down, grabbed a rock and fired it at it. Wrong move This bird was fricken nuts!! My next 100m run was a disaster. The thing chased my ass down the field making atleast 5 swoops at my head!! I didn’t know what the f*** to do. Meanwhile… tonnes of parents were walking their kids calmly around the outside of the track watching this “circus show” take place in the middle of the infield. One lady says to me, “It looks like that thing’s after you…” YEAH, NO SHT IT’S AFTER ME! I’m running for my f**en life here.

So, I chill out by the bleachers for a few minutes hoping this “Bird of Satan” will forget me so I can finish my session. I keep my eye on this thing the whole time knowing that if I lose sight of it I’ll probably end up with a beak in the back of the head. So I give it about 5 min or so and I go to the opposite end of the field as this crow. I start doing my 200m turnarounds at the far end and guess what happens??? An instant fricken replay of what just took place a few minutes ago!!! People are laughing at my ass as I’m trying to shake this bird away from me on the home stretch. After that embarrassment, I ran straight off the field and jumped into my car. What a shameful display of athletism on my part!!

so we can call those 2 runs intensive tempo

Hahaha dude, that was hilarious! I was laughing my ass off reading that… I wish I could’ve seen that :smiley: I don’t know what I would’ve done if that happened to me though… Probably the same thing you did… Run from the Bird of Satan! :eek:

LOL. If you ever see that bird again stand tall and swipe at it when it strikes with something. They only strike if u have your back turned…pussies :smiley: LMAO

Now you have something to crow about.

I had a similar incident happen to me,but with a fox. The Mofo tried to steal one side of my Nike Shox! I wasn’t impressed! Mashed up my laces and everything! Son of a b*tch! Everytime I started (tried to) do a 150 tempo run he would creep back to my belongings and try and take something else! Worst session ever!!

That story was frickin’ hilarious, I was laughing out loud!

ROTFL !!! thanx i needed that blinky!

Did your bird attack look anything like this?

Pigeon Attack

He was trying to show you who was boss; who owned that track and I guess he won,

Ca Caw Ca Caw Ca Caw

No but seriously, it’s about being the dominant/Alpha male. Just watch “Walking Tall” with the Rock and that American Pie guy where the monkey tries to show male-dominance.

LMFAO

No but really seriously, in order to show him who’s the boss and to be the Alpha male you should have Ca Caw Ca Caw Ca Cawed louder at him while at the same time spreading your arms like a chicken feriously.

Yeah… that reminds me of the circus trainers-lions relationship.

eh i could imagine you ran a 9.76? or more of 9.77?

u shoulda just kept on chucking rocks at it till u killed it.

Good luck if you did that… What’s the probability? 0.00010012?

Very similar. I like the background music in your video better though.
