That’s right. Dogs: yes, but a pair of goats? I’d never been chased by a goat during a roller ski until yesterday. In fact, when I first saw the goats I thought they were two huge dogs chasing my teammate Eric down the road. When we caught up to them, they started chasing us too! They kept running ahead of us and trying to corner us. They made it about a mile from their farm. Eventually, they got bored and started eating foliage on the trees nearby and left us alone. What’s the craziest thing you’ve been chased by during a workout?
