This.

I went into a running store not long ago, to talk about running watches and belts and things. The (male) employee was showing me all the great things I could wear that allowed me to run without my cellphone, because it was so "freeing."

The fact that this is something that he can entertain as a man while running alone, is fascinating. I wonder what that's like to run alone and completely let down your guard, carry no phone, and just enjoy your natural endorphins - it must be nice.

I have been followed while running. I also had to call police for a woman who was randomly sexually assaulted. Simply for being a woman out and about.

Are men attacked sometimes? Sure - but it's likely a mugging - your wallet, your phone, maybe your shoes. They're very very rarely, randomly attacked just for being a man who's outside.

Oy vey, enough with the pearl-clutching already. I grew up before cell phones, and I went running by myself, without a phone, [i]for many decades[/i] without incident. Want to know what that's like to run alone and completely let down your guard, carry no phone, and just enjoy your natural endorphins? You don't have to ask a man, just ask a woman of 55 like me. It was great!
