It was one day the last winter. It was really cold in that mountain at 8.00 am. My brother and I went to ride the bike as we used to do every Saturday morning, then we met one guy climbing the same mountain but he was doing that on foot and without t-shirt, which was certainly unusual. He stopped us to ask for a bit of water and we gave to him without hesitation.
When he finished drinking, he started to tell us that he had started to run every morning in that mountain many years ago while he had been fighting in the national war, and his training was basically this exercise every morning, even if the day was really cold. We started to think, "This guy must to be crazy", but after a few minutes talking, I think the guy realised that we were thinking that and he started to show us trenches and gun places hidden in the middle of the forrest. It was really interesting to find out that despite that we had been riding our bikes there every weekend we had never noticed those historic places. After that we realised that the appearance sometimes gives you a wrong idea of the person appearances are deceiving.
Also, we understood the war changes everyone's life, driving ourselves to a kind of crazyness.
Diego C: That's a good story, the majority of the times every person has something interesting to tell.
