I would say that it's perfectly normal behavior. The node spends most of it's
time in sleep state, but when he is in the timer function which is switching
on/off the LEDs, which is performed very quickly. So your probability to stop
it during this timer call are very small. I would also say that if you use
gdb stepping from there you may miss some timers/interrupts (not really
shure about this ) or not enter those functions.

if you want to stop your program in the timer function or something else you
should use breakpoints ...
