Just curious-do any other runners get comments, honks, whistles, etc while doing their runs?

I have joked that my run isn't complete until some guy whistles at me and I am usually NOT disappointed.

Do I like it? Ehhh...depends. Some times it kinda creeps me out (early mornings, late nights, dark road ways) but days like today I just HAD to laugh! Sunday morning and a car with two boys (high school age?) drives by and they slow down and whistle. HA! If they only knew I was probably OLDER than their mothers! But-It is kind of a good feeling knowing that are whistling and not mocking me! (In my mind anyway!)

    I get a few honks and whistles while running but not a lot~but then again I run with my husband and I think that that may be a damper on peoples nerve to comment with him along?

    I do get whistles sometimes. It does make me feel good but my Siberian Huskey is a bit of a deterrent. He is huge (tall) . I like it when strangers give me a thumbs up or a friendly wave. Sometimes that is the push I need. I try to do the same when I drive by someone running.
