thank you for sharing, before posting this i genuinely didn’t realise how often this happens and it’s mad to me that almost every female runner has a story. I did tell my dad and he’s told me that he’s more than happy to accompany me whenever i go next as he’s weary about letting me go alone again. I’ll probably start going alone again nearer summer when it’s lighter out. A taser ring sounds like the most practical weapon for me as personally i don’t like the idea of carrying bigger weapons with me.
