Running Long-Distance

I had a dream last night where I was in a basement with other individuals who were being held captive. I recognized one of the "bad guys" but I hadn't seen him in quite some time. He was trying to get information from people and was being very threatening -- at one point he put one of the captives fingers in a chopper scissor-like tool and threatened to cut it off. I felt incredibly scared and began to mention to this man the names of people that we both were friends with hoping this would jolt his memory and I would gain sympathy.

I looked across the room and saw my husband who I will refer to as "Rich" and I knew it was time to escape. I was aware of a secret compartment where the "bad guys" had hidden stolen money. I was able to open it, grab it and "Rich" and I bolted quickly out of the basement without being seen at the time.

"Rich" and I knew the "bad guys" would realize we were gone and come running after so, so we kept running and suddenly we were in a group of long-distance runners. It appeared we were running from the "bad guys" but were also running in a race with this group of runners. As we were running, the terrain began to go uphill and at one point I saw the group of runners begin to head towards the right which appeared to be an easier route. I looked at "Rich" and yelled "No! We need to go to the left and straight up."

The hill was very steep and my legs hurt incredibly going up, but I knew that this was the "safe" route.
