Does anyone else feel this way?

Question

what do you do when you want to workout and run outside and the only place you can do it is your neighborhood, however, you are afraid to do it in your neighborhood because you know everybody and you are afraid someone may see you? this is what is happening with me. i want to workout, and the only place i can run is in my neighborhood, but i can't, cuz i know everyone and they might see me. so where else can i run?

Answer 1

actually do i understand how you feel. i'm very self-conscience about working out around people i know (especially my family)
i would try to find somewhere close by (like a field, or path through a wooded area) that you can run in. also if you want there are plenty of exercises you can do in your house so that you don't have to worry about people seeing you do them.
another suggestion would to be run at night (just make sure you wear light colored clothing and a reflective vest so people will see you coming), then people won't necessarily know it's you.

Answer 2

I completely agree w/ you, I have the same problem. I dont know about you, but I have some parks near-by, so sometimes I run/bike around the park. You could do that if you have a park near you. I hope this helps!
