Us ******* hicks would prefer if you would jog on the side of a road or a jogging trail, not just the "countryside". Just because someone's backyard is 20 acres doesn't mean they want to share it with condescending yuppies.

Don't underestimate country folk

That's actually kind of hilarious. Don't get me wrong I'm sure it was scary as hell and I don't want to demean that, but since you lived to post about it I'm not going to feel bad about chuckling at this. And ignore the haters telling you that you deserved it for not immediately assuming it was someone's land; if you're not from that area, I think you should be allowed to make an innocent mistake or two.

I wouldn't go so far as to point a rifle at you. I'd have a gun with me just in case though. You still shouldn't have been trespassing op.

I don't get some of these responses. 1) Did you know it was someone's property? Can't assume you did. 2) if someone is clearly just running through my property, and not hanging around or causing trouble, I wouldn't be the least bit bothered by it.

Obviously you were on the wrong land...
