I also travel for work, so I run in cities unknown, places unknown, etc.<br /><br />I have to say I have never, ever been afraid. Probably stupid, but I've never worried about it.<br /><br />I usually ask someone at the hotel if it is okay to run or where I should/shouldn't go; I usually go on more traveled streets; paths, and I do carry my cell.<br /><br />But honestly, ever since I was a kid, I've had no fear of walking the streets at night alone, or running any where on my own.<br /><br />If I DIDN'T do this, I would have missed some really wonderful experiences! Hi:

I get asked that question all the time, as I run alone a lot. I also travel for work, so I run in cities unknown, places unknown, etc.

I have to say I have never, ever been afraid. Probably stupid, but I've never worried about it.

I usually ask someone at the hotel if it is okay to run or where I should/shouldn't go; I usually go on more traveled streets; paths, and I do carry my cell.

But honestly, ever since I was a kid, I've had no fear of walking the streets at night alone, or running any where on my own.

If I DIDN'T do this, I would have missed some really wonderful experiences!

It was a regional park, about 200 miles across. They called out the mounties to find me. Otherwise, I agree: it's fun to get lost. Once in Canada I got lost trying to run across a park.

If I ever run anywhere that I am a little iffy about I just carry my trusty keychain tear gas. I would recommend that to anyone who is nervous running alone. And don't run in the dark by yourself if you can avoid it. It does sound very lovely out there. If I ever run anywhere that I am a little iffy about I just carry my trusty keychain tear gas.

I think that you would be quite able to defend yourself! Plus, they'd have to catch you:)!! Beth, sounds like a wonderful place, vacation, and run.

In fact, one of my favorite places to vacation is B.C. and go every few years. Glad you had a good time and found the gem. I love Stanley Park.
