I Must Run Everywhere
I'm happy to introduce a new/old runner who is a prolific writer with a unique sense
of humor. Jim Johnson offered to republish a few of his articles from his blog, "I must Run Everywhere."

Extraterrestrials lurking

Posted on   June 24, 2013

I previously wrote about Hans Harzl, an Austrian runner who joined a bunch of aliens for a run. Since writing about this incident, they appear to be emboldened.

Hans Harzl had the misfortune of going for a run at the same time aliens wanted to do an up-tempo workout

Hans Harzl had the misfortune of being spotted by aliens while on  a run.

They apparently want more interactions with humans, especially in Eastern Washington where I live. It seems they like the camaraderie of running with us, even though 9 out of 10 people believe aliens are scary.

I started doing patrols in and around my hometown, focusing on nearby wheat-growing areas because I know how aliens like to do the crop-circle thing.

Looking for evidence of extraterrestial visitors

Patrolling and monitoring the countryside for signs of extraterrestrial visitors.

I came across a site where the wheat was laid down in an obvious attempt at crop circle-making. It was clearly the work of aliens, but this group is far from having the full skill set.

They may be aliens, but that doesn't mean they're great at making crop circles

They may be aliens, but that doesn’t mean they’re great at making crop circles.

I noticed blatant soil disturbance. The average alien knows how to cover their tracks, so these guys are obviously just starting out. I collected a soil sample and tested it in my basement laboratory. Voila! Elements not found on earth. They’re here, but being mistake-prone, maybe they’re not so scary after all.

Fragments of propellant. Elements not of earth. Beer bottles from a brewery in another galaxy. Aliens.

Propellant residue. Elements not of earth. Bottle caps from a brewery unknown on Earth. It all adds up to aliens.

So if a spaceship lands near you and a gaggle of aliens pour out to join you for a run, maybe showing them a cool running route will really impress them.
