11.8 miles

The cool thing about Strava is once you follow someone, you can poach their running routes and try something different.  You do in fact have to know where you are going once you pop out of the woods onto an unfamiliar road.  My 50/50 chance of going left or right turned into the wrong decision and I had to call my wife from the next town over after running 11.8 miles.  

I normally would have slogged it home those extra 5 miles, but instead of pissing people off and ruining the opportunity to do other things on a Sunday, I called for a ride and saved the day.  I did not beat the eight minute man today.

See, that's why I always carry a sundial, map of Texas, a pace counter, a compass, a walkie talkie and a sextant (for night runs).

You're a smart man. I can't find my way out of a paper bag.

I'm not going to say anything...I'm the guy who's run the wrong way in several races (and they're clearly marked).
