Jogging Safety

Joggers can be susceptible to criminal attack. One of the problems with joggers or
runners is that they can become so preoccupied in their physical activity that they
fail to be alert and pay attention to their surroundings. They sometimes become too
busy concentrating how much further they have to go and on putting one foot in front
of theĀ other that they don’t realize what is happening around them.
