Two guys go for a jog.

Just when Erica thought about giving up and going to the main office, she saw light spilling out of the door frame of one of the cabins. Her heart leaped, but it was too early to count her chickens as hatched.

She flinched when she saw that two boys had left their cabins, wearing running gear and headlights on their foreheads. They were going on an evening jog in the direction of the lake. She had to decide quickly whether or not to approach them for help or she would never catch them. If this was her only opportunity to be rescued, Erica did not want to waste it. It was an easy decision.

Feeling cold and miserable, Erica began racing with her bare feet over the cold ground, across the open space, followed the boys on their trail. They were almost too quick for her, forcing her to run flat out. After maybe thirty yards into the already black trail, she saw the trailing boy jerk his head. She could not see his face below the headlight.
