Runners and Hikers should wear or carry a whistle when on trails!
Reconciling a 33 minute drive in order to run for 45 minutes, then drive another 45 minutes to Stockton is difficult. Especially since the run route may include crossing over into private property which, to me, a Harvard and MIT grad would not want to do. It also means he would only run for appx 22 minutes before turning back to reach his vehicle. Typically, wouldn't an 8 mile run require appx 60 minutes for experienced distance runners and not 45 minutes?
Within 3 days of missing, LEO announces he may have left the vicinity. What led them to believe this so soon? Is he considered to be wealthy with funds for beginning anew? Was he exhibiting signs of depression?
He ran with a buddy the evening before so why did he feel the need to run in the heat of the next day? Then, there's that pesky land owner who has denied SAR teams access. Why?
Also, if he was wearing the GPS watch, why can't LEO check his phone for his last location? Many sq miles searched and hundreds of searchers but none have reported seeing vultures so that's good news.
A genius in the Energy Efficiency department of PG&E could place him in a stressful yet strategic arena politically.

From experience, a Smoothie King would be the ideal place for a Power Lunch after a run or possibly, but not probable, a pre-run Power Brunch. Sandwiches are also served. Would this location be on his way to the trails? Perhaps they have security cameras.
