Come on People!!! It's only common courtesy to say hi to people as they pass, right?!?!?
During my run today, I passed two people that kinda just didn't bother. One put his head down just as I was passing. The other looked across the street as I was passing. That's one of the reasons I run at night - Sheesh! Well not really, but it sounded good...Right?!?!
So after this whole ‘politeness catastrophe' (and another thought that I was probably just whining about it...because that's just what I do) I decided I would put this thought to the test. Do people just go out of their way not to say hi? Mission: Go out of my way to say HI to all the people I pass! The Results: The next six or seven people I came across all said hi. Oh well...So people are kinda nice overall. But then I came across this guy that ‘overly' smiled and waved excitedly. Hmmm...Weird. Maybe he was just a really, really, really happy nice bubbly guy - Or perhaps he's just not used to some insane runner guy yelling HI to him.
