[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been a runner and city dweller for 30 years and a dog owner for 10 and have literally never encountered any of the problems in this thread. Sidewalks are shared community resources, open to runners and walkers, slow or fast, and to dogs on leashes, people wearing headphones, and little kids on bikes. It’s really not that hard to have a little patience and the tiniest bit of a sense of humor. Both will help you avoid the dramatic events you’re describing. Get a grip. [/quote] I mean "run in place until they're off the bridge, then cross the bridge" is a fair options. Runners often have to stop at red lights. Same deal. Still, you shouldn't be taking up more than your share of space just because you have a dog, and you definitely shouldn't be taking up more than your share of space while also wearing headphones, messing with your phone, or otherwise being difficult to directly engage when people point out that you're in the way. It's not your private space. Stay aware of your surroundings, as a safety precaution. [/quote]
