I can't carry in an ankle holster or a sock if I am running, carrying a gun when I am running does me no good.
-Even if I am running very slow (which in my current state is actually my only speed) I am usually breathing too hard to even SEE the sights much less hold them steady long enough to pull the trigger.
I can't stand the thought of being shot dead while holding a pistol because I am gasping for breath while trying to acquire a sight picture.
My defense posture if ever confronted while already running, is to continue running.
...and to try running in a serpentine pattern. Most people are incapable of taking well aimed shots while making rapid course corrections.
Serpentine everyone - SERPENTINE !!
