And why this location? Well one, I guess, is because she jogged past it on her runs (I assume). He must have scouted the spot out and left his gear there ahead of time. Aside from the proximity to the jogging route, I wonder if there is anything specific about that spot? I know there is a cemetery on that road, but was this area/spot known to be a place where local teenagers hung out to smoke pot or anything like that? A known spot for some particular activity? Only the locals would know.
That is something else I hadn't considered - worth thinking through that possibility as well. What did he have with him? I'm thinking (just my own opinion, based on nothing) that the burns were from a lighter or cigarette, so that doesn't take much gear to carry. But he might have had a weapon (rock, hammer?) to subdue her and perhaps something to restrain her? We don't know, but "setting up" his gear ahead of time isn't something I've thought about much. He at least had something to make fire, that's for sure.
