    I run on the road all of the time and in cycle paths if provided. The road is a flatter suface and theres far less chance of trodding ankle deep in dog sh*t on the road.

    Common sense usually makes me hop onto the foot path when I see a cyclist barrelling towards me at high speeds. Same as with cars.

    Just use common sense FFS. If your jogging on the road and see a cyclist or a car coming towards you then its is only polite to move out of the way.
    If your driving and there is a jogger on the road then slow down and make it safe for them.
    If I'm jogging on a footpath and there happens to be a car parked there I'm not going to run into it just because its not meant to be there.

    Life's too short :)

    In dedicated cycle lanes like along the Grand Canal where there are 2 footpaths alongside there is no excuse for stupid joggers using the cycle lane.

    As an aside I saw a woman today walking in the centre of the cycle lane into oncoming cycle traffic. Naturally with earplugs in.

    The neck on some people. Where do they come from?
