I will come on thursday morning. I'll be the one in the least fashionable black tracksuit bottoms you'll ever see.

 

[unstuck]

ooooh I would , I love to run with peeps, but I'm afraid I'm REALLY more of an evening runner. Like at that hour, I'm a bit homicidal.

Who would rob a jogger? I run at evenings sometimes and there are plenty of other people who do it as well. Never seen anyone get robbed.

Actually, it does happen. A pal of mine from Ireland, a guy who was actually an International Class athlete, was out for a run in Bolton, England, (wrongly reproted originally as being in Liverpool) and was robbed in the park where he was running.... He was also stabbed in the robbery...... And as I say, the guy was a top class athlete, and he couldn't "run away"

On the plus side, it happens VERY infrequently, but that doesn't mean you should drop your guard. As many run with Garmin GPS's, expensive shoes etc, an oportune thief just might have a go..... Running in a group is a great idea, as well as being fun too.
