    I live in Canada and the thought of someone carrying a gun just walking around is wild to me.

    My response is literally zero help to you. Sorry about that.

    You might feel differently if you lived in a country where everybody you met on the sidewalk had a gun on them, and likely a prescription for anti-depressants too.

    I don't disagree with that at all - I posted above that I'm not judging, it's just such a foreign thing to me.

    Great question and I think it is very wise of you to be doing this. My dh said this would be the only way he would feel comfortable of me jogging outside. It is unfortunate that this is the society we live in. So those who are sharing their opinions on how "wild" this is. Would you rather she be harmed, raped or murdered simply because she is exercising and some jerk/madman wants to harm her or have her defend herself and he end up in the morgue? Just saying!

    Did you expect me to say yes to this? Of course I wouldn't rather that. I just live in a place where the only people walking on a street next to me who can legally carry a gun are police officers.

    Yes Canada is blessed compared to many countries where even police officers don't carry! Crazy stuff. My husband has a Canadian mentor and he has said several times how Americans take their freedom for granted.

    oh all good except last line. shouldn't have gone there. oh my lord. let the firestorm commense. for the record, I am one American who does NOT take freedom for granted! My family served in the Military. My grandfather was a POW in Germany twice and received two purple hearts. My brother was an Airborne Ranger. just do NOT say that sh|t.

    I didn't say it I'm saying that is one Canadian man's opinion. Obviously not all Americans take their freedom for granted though some do just like anything.

    Just this week I purchased the UShake Gear Running Belt (Amazon for $10). My Ruger LCP 380 (tiny handgun) fits perfectly, and it doesn't bounce at all. The belt has a wide stretchy strap that sits on my hips and stays put, even on my smooth running capris. This is by far the best product for a small concealed handgun I've found.

    I also own the belly band holster mentioned above and would not recommend it - it is just really big and sits awkwardly on my torso (and I'm 5'11"). I practiced drawing my gun from this holster, and the process of lifting my shirt, awkwardly reaching my hand down into the band pocket that is pressed tightly against my body to retrieve the gun isn't something I'd want to do under duress - it just didn't work for me and was a waste of $50.

    That's interesting that you'd rather try to use fine motor skills, to unzip a compartment over lifting your shirt up and pulling it out. I agree the belly band draw isn't ideal. I guess just make sure you practice with whatever you decide. Make sure the first time you do something isn't a life or death situation and all that good stuff.

    Easier to carry, and a good shot of mace to the face will keep you as safe as a gun.

    Why would I carry mace when I can carry a gun?

    Ditto this! My brother is a police officer and he has had secondary spray so much it really doesn't faze him anymore....

    Not for workout, but if since you have concealed carry, you might find this interesting. https://www.scottevest.com/v3_store/Annie_Jacket.shtml

    I love their products and wear the women's travel vest frequently.

    So why post?

    For the OP: A belt pack would be simple and stable for you. Make sure you are carrying something as light as possible. The weight will bother you over time.

    I carry a Ruger SR22 and wear Undertech Undercover compression shorts when I'm runing a new route.

    Honestly, I've only carried in shoulder holsters as I carried big magnums (my concern was bears, not humans).

    I was looking these Undertech Undercover shorts. It is an interesting concept, but doesn't the handgun bulge under your shirt & shorts at all when you are running?

    I couldn't find pictures of people carrying in these that were actually clothes, just half naked models with the gun in plain view :)

    Might have to get these though. I like the concept. I'm just curious what it looks like when someone has clothes over these.

    I run with the Can Can Concealment sport belt and you can't see a thing, BUT the gun I run with is a tiny .380. A larger gun would print for sure.

    Why would I carry mace when I can carry a gun?

    Its safer for the jogger to carry Mace when running and more than likely a better choice for accuracy especially if using a fogger type mace.

    Try jogging in place for 2 minutes at the shooting range then attempt to hit a target you will get my point quickly

    I have. I try to train for the situations I might be placed in. As an experienced runner, and an experienced shooter, I would much rather be carrying a gun than mace. A big reason is t hat I don't want to have to be close enough to a threat to use mace.

    If someone is far away they aren't attacking you so you can't shoot them my mace shoots 25 feet. If they beat you up get up and walk away you can't shoot them after they have stopped. So many people are going to prison because they shot someone as they believe its legal or because they have a gun they are some how now a judge, jury executioner- My 2 cents - NOT EVEN A JUDGE puts someone to death for assault.

    I can assure you killing someone will haunt you much more than the *kitten* kicking you might get ...lol..

    wow. just so much wrong with this thinking. shallow thinking. try again.

    Please don't try again. There is a debate forum on this website. I would suggest that if you have strong feelings on this topic, that is where you should be.

    Veiled sarcasm gets me every time. I have practiced with both bands, as stated in my post, and prefer unzipping the belt to draw. Don't assume that I haven't been in a life or death situation "and all that good stuff". No draw is ever going to be ideal, but you do the best you can with what you choose and what you practice with. Someone suggested the belly band... I tried it and it didn't work for me. I bought the running belt and love it. I didn't ask for opinions on my gear. And, now I sound like a bwitch.

    No you don't. A zippered running belt wouldn't work for me, but my husband uses one when he's cycling and it works great for him. No one understands your situation better than you do, and nothing is going to work for everyone.

    Best thread in a long time.

    Stick with a light choice. I tried running with a G19 and ended up with my hand on my crotch for 3 miles.

    Wouldn't something like Krav Maga be more useful than simply carrying heat? You never really read about joggers thwarting an attacker on the trail with close range gunfire. I understand the need to feel safe, and maybe you do have Charles Bronson skillz, but the odds are more likely that there will be a struggle. Krav Maga is universally effective.

    Bullets are not susceptible to wind.

    I train as I expect I might need to use the training. In other words, not in a calm, perfect stance under ideal range conditions.

    Ah. No
    But we were just talking about Plaxico, so.......What's your point? A gun is foolproof?
    Riiiight...

    We were talking about some idiot who illegally carried a firearm. Plaxico Burress has no bearing on a lawful concealed carrier.

    If the end game is safety, why can't we bring up other self defense techniques? We are selling this issue way short if the answer is simply holster yoga pants.

    I live in a big city too. I've considered getting mace, but knowing my luck I'd spray it in my own face. Last summer, there were a lot of incidents on the lake path. It's scary. I don't think I'd feel comfortable with a gun. For now, the times I run, there's always a lot of people out and I do not run with music. Honestly, if people running around me are carrying, that makes me feel a little safer should I need help.

    OP: I know I didn't provide input on your question, I'm just posting because I think this thread is interesting, and appreciate the responses.

    Just wondering if anyone has found any cute Capri length workout pants or tops or if anyone has any general suggestions on ways to conceal carry while going for a walk or jog. Luckily mine is pretty tiny so it lends itself to being easily concealed but obviously I'd like it easily accessible too! Sorry if this is the wrong board to be posting in - let me know if so and I will move it to the appropriate board! Thanks!
