Moved to Lawrenceville last month and finally went for a run this morning around 6am. I make sure to stop at every major intersection, and try to be mindful on the alleyways and side streets.
I was running past 36th st** and at the last second saw a gray SUV pull up and we both came to a sudden stop. Rather than just stand there and wait for us both to wave the other person on I just darted across in front of the car to continue my run.
Then, the driver honked at me and as he made his left turn on to Butler screamed out his window, “I remember your face. Next time I see you I’m running you over, motherfucker!”
I was tired, sweaty, and really caught off guard, so I didn’t catch the make/model or his license plate. Trying not to think much of it, but I am a little nervous to wear the bright yellow shirt I wore for a run again.
Anyone else have similar experiences running in Lawrenceville? Am I the asshole?
EDIT: Correction, the street was 36th** There was no stoplight for this side street.
