Disapponted!

It is disheartening to hear news about random attacks on joggers out and about trying to get and stay fit.

In my current home town of
Bunbury a young lady was attacked. What kind of person try's to mug a jogger? I never carry money when I run.

I guess my phone could hold some value.

But the worst thing is, it makes a healthy and safe activity like jogging seem unsafe.

So what to do...

If you run with music, try and either run with a lower volume so you can still be aware of your surrounds.

Jog with a jogging buddy.

Plan a jogging path that follows high traffic areas, even as night falls or as morning breaks. Jogging in a secluded area might just be asking to be mugged!

However, don't let it deter you from getting fit. Just get smart and keep on jogging!!!
