There are socially unacceptable things that runners do when no one is looking. I always ran with a handkerchief. I knew about the "farmer's blow" but was too grossed out to do it! Jim started running with me a couple of years ago & "encouraged" me to let go of my inhibitions. I've perfected it in private. After we ran this morning, I walked in the parking lot to cool down. I checked that no one was around & "cleared". I turned to the parked cars & saw an older lady looking at me in horror! I raised my hand in apology & quickly made it to the truck. Jim: "Don't worry about it! She probably wishes she could do it, too..." Her face did not denote that...
