So I did a trail run today. About 10 mins in, I started getting swarmed by strawberry flies. We also call them deer flies. Not as big as a greenhead for you southern gals, Not as small as a blackfly for you northern gals. Somewhere between. They bite like a blackfly, take an actual chunk. I was running in a racer back shimmel. They attacked me so badly the welts blended together. Rotten buggers.
I did however finish the run. Thank heavens I had a hat on. I took it off to swat. It was miserable. And I felt great running. Go Figure.
