    running in public

    Does anyone else feel embrassed when running in public. I recently started running at night about 9pm or 10pm as there is less people about. The first time i did it this gang of boys started lau***ng at me and singing the eye of the tiger song. I already have low confidence and this type of thing doesn't help. I don't go out much around the town i live in because this type of thing always happens to me. It really knocks me down a knotch because I hate being made fun of.

    Don't let it get to you! There will always be a few idiots everywhere you go! All you have to remember is how much your bettering yourself and they aren't because they are to busy focusing on others. The gym isn't a place for people to make fun of anyone it is a place to put you in good shape and help better yourself... So forget those dumb ass's and have fun and workout

    Smile and say thanks, kill them with kindness. 99% of the time it will embaress them and they won't know what to say and won't bother you again. Even if you see them again, be pleasant>>

    they will feel like the sh$tbirds they really are.


    Carry on with your badself!!!!!

    Dont let it get to you brother!! I sometimes would get the run forest run. But i promptly told them to **** off. Not much was said after that. But i would say get a mp3 player. I always jam out now when i run and i cant hear shit. Like everyone else said your doing it to better your self and there is always assholes out there. Dont let them get you down.

    I'm a very self concious person too. I usually run aound this elementary school by my house where it is pretty empty. If there are people there then oh well. F-em if they talk noise. I just remind myself that that's the reason why most of those people are fat ass pigs and that I never want to be like that. Keep at it.
