I know, it's sad. Kinda like the Cavs, but not nearly as dramatic. The worst part was that the Gnats decided to come at me from all sides today. I took one to the eye (twss), one to the mouth, and one to the nose. The one to the eye was the worst. It's rather hard to continue to run when you literally feel the gnat crawling on your eye ball. *Shudder*
Surprisingly, I was able to continue running after inhaling the one gnat. This may seem like nothing to the non-running world, but I would respectfully submit that it is ridiculously hard to run whilst you are coughing.
I think I'm going to have to get some granny glasses or something at least to protect my eyes. It's too hot in the summer to wear a face mask, but maybe one of those medical masks will work for my mouth.

gahhhh i know this is one thing that is not on my list of favorites about spring - the bugs!
OMG!! LA Run Buddy and were ATTACKED, attacked I tell you by f-ing gnats! They are the scourge of the damn earth!
And you are right you CAN feel the things squirm on your eyeball and try to crawl back out of your throat when you inhale the damn things!
You are doing better than us. We are currently at about 16-0, Gnats. Of course I don't think any of the gnats survived the battle so I am not sure they can really claim the win.
I've considered wearing heavy duty glasses and a medical mask while running but I have a feeling I'd just scare people into thinking there was a zombie attack going on. They always start in a medical facility, you know.
Good luck in the continuing battle against the too-stupid-to-live brainless buggers.
