00:00This was in October of 2014, so it was a little chilly. It was in Iowa. I went out to
00:05the park
00:06to do part of my route at the park, and then I was going to run through the small town
00:10there.
00:11As I started my run, I was about two or three miles in when I was entranced by my surroundings,
00:17but there's no one around. Where is everyone at? And I kept going, and that's when I noticed the
00:22man. He never said anything. I don't even know if he looked at me. He just kept walking,
00:26and as I'm passing him, I'm crossing a wooden bridge. Out of nowhere, I hear a thunk, thunk,
00:31thunk behind me on the wooden bridge, and I turn around, and that's when I see him. He's coming
00:36straight at me. In that moment, I completely freeze. He was pulling out a knife with a white handle,
00:41and he's just coming at me. He's not saying a word. He's just looking straight at me with
00:46very soulless eyes. I remember saying, please don't hurt me. Please stop. What are you doing?
00:51Kind of in shock. One moment, he's coming at me. Next thing I know, he's pushed me into the woods,
00:59and he's on top of me.
