Time GMT + 9 hours. - Bear ! Last night a bear showed interest in my tent. About 24 O?clock we were awaken by angry sounds from a bear about 300m from our forest side camp. It seemed to be moving in a half circle around the camp and after 5-10min. of 'bear shouting' it closed in while each of us sat in the darkness of our tents; not very easy at mind.. ;-) Of course it chose to have a look at the Danish tent :-( Holding a small Swiss knife in the hand and listening to the sounds outside the thin tent cloth I thought this was a most unfair way of stopping the run ;-)) Fortunately the bear obviously shared the opinion and left a bit later, and the pulse could return to the usual level for ultra runners. |
