running my usual route this morning - do this regularly. In the distance - zig zag path, I see a black figure. Bit strange as warm today. Definitely black hood but and think face was covered. I am never spooked on this run although it is a river path with forest on one side. I stop on the zig zag hill path thinking figure will walk past me and then I can run on deeper into the forest area. But figure does not come towards me - I assume waiting? At this point, I am frightened and turn and run back out of the forest area onto public path. I wait at the top of the public path and no one appears. Another lady is approaching forest with her dog and I warn her of what I saw - we both decide to stick to path. I now feel I may have just seen someone wearing black - but where did they go? Very strange and unnerving.
