How can i run around my area without people staring and honking their car horns at me?

Does anyone know how to go for a run or bike around your area without people staring and being dodgy to me? It really pisses me off when i try to go for a run and wierd people stare and follow me and i just want to chuck something at them urrgh! I feel really unsafe so can you help me? I would love to go unnoticed. Thanks x0x0x

Hun honestly you can do what the top one^^ said above, but it wont work for long. That was the second worst thing i dealt with when I ran around my area SO honestly the solution- do it in your own home. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GET FREAKIN PLASTIC SURGERY





Get a treadmill or a stair climber or something to just use in the privacy of your own home. I mean being violent may scare someone off temporarily- but sometimes thats how you get stalkers on your hands. And assault charges.





Good luck

Your best bet is to go to a nice park or specified running areas- I have a local one that%26#039;s over a small highway.

Reply:find a local park in your area to jog-this helps me a great deal. my park has even put markers up to allow me to track how far i am jogging and i feel totally safe b/c it%26#039;s mostly moms and their kids-i%26#039;ve never been followed or whistled at.





you can also try the local high school or college track field-sometimes the school will leave these areas open so the public can use them





my bf also flies rc airplanes at a local flying field and when he flies his airplanes with his friends-i%26#039;ll jog around the field (his friends know better than to say something or be rude).





if you have a friend that is willing to jog or bike with you-try that as well. safety in numbers is always best.
Reply:well i%26#039;ve found that looking as unattractive as possible seems to help. i%26#039;m pretty sure it happens to most people. coz i%26#039;m in the same position as you, it happens constantly. run down side streets where there isn%26#039;t as much traffic, oh and don%26#039;t go for a run between 5-6 there tends to be lots of sleazy trady%26#039;s coming home around that time.
Reply:What are you wearing when you are running around your area? Are you doing anything to provoke this attention from other people while you are running around?
Reply:don%26#039;t run in something like tight tanks tops and short shorts..obviously they%26#039;ll be checking at your breasts bouncing up and down (stupid guys) and your legs..so when i run i usually throw on some windbreakers (they keep you cool too) and a thin sweatshirt..my ipod and maybe my hood up. if not you could drive somewhere like a park and run there.
Reply:Carry a stick or pepper spray! If they piss you off, beat the bloddy shite out of them
Reply:Three words: STOP BEING PREPPY! Obviously you%26#039;re not trying in the least to %26quot;disappear%26quot; so to speak. I agree with the other girl. Light capris, light jacket, hood up, iPod. Stay on the side walk and focus on yourself. This way people will know you%26#039;re actually exercising, and not just running around like a maniac. If people still continue to give you wierd looks, give them a slight grin and a little nod, unless they%26#039;re total creepos that you dont want to mess with.
Reply:Stay on the sidewalk.


Run in the opposite direction of the traffic so no one will follow you.


Don%26#039;t run wearing heels.
