On the other hand, I see the tan, skinny woman walking everywhere - on Beach Dr, the Rock Creek Trail, Rockville Pike, Tuckerman, etc. She must cover a very wide area because I've also seen her in Gaithersburg.

Does the woman you're talking about have short gray hair and glasses? Walks kind of hunched forward?

Is that the anorexic grandma? Some days she looks like she is in agony, but she keeps on going.

I spotted him last year, of course "walking" up Georgia Ave, coming out of Olney. He pretty much looks the same as he did 30 years ago!

Saw him today about noon on the trail next to MD 200 walking east around shady grove rd.

Just saw him again today 12/6/2018 on Georgia Ave. First saw him in about 2002. I've seen him as far north as Sunshine.

Maybe he’s Randall Flagg.

Is he still around! I used to see him all the time when I live in Olney, back in 1990.

I think he just likes to walk. It's like meditation or something?

I always see him walking down Georgia Ave from Olney. I think he cut his hair a little recently?

I saw him in the early 2000s in that area on my way to work.

I have not seen him for a few years, but was telling someone about him just the other day. Glad to hear he is still walking. Really wish I knew his story. He is a legend.

Nah, apparently his name is Lenny.

I've seen him on the trail near the Mormon Temple the past two mornings. He has short hair now but you can tell it's him.
