I stopped in my tracks and was wearing a heart rate monitor and noticed my heart rate didn’t go down as much as it usually does when I stop running. I was honestly in awe I think this has to be the largest one I’ve spotted. It’s the rattlesnakes you have to worry about. The baby rattlesnakes are out this spring and they are more dangerous than the adults because they release all their venom. This guy eats them. Friend.

Looks like he's been having nice lunches, he's a big boy lol. Yes, those baby snakes are bad news!

I know that feeling - seeing a snake as I ran through the yard showed me I had a choice of when to put my feet back down on the ground!
