How do you pack when jogging or running?

[CountryGent]

I restarted a practice today of the morning jog. As the weather continues to suck less, I'm going to be adding sprints back into the mix too. Question for those that do the same: how do you carry whilst doing so? What piece and what holster?

Thanks much.

P.S. Tagging @Kruel J on this one because I know he does that most days.

Welp....I run on a treadmill most days so the only thing on me besides clothes is my headphones.

I either pocket carry an LCP .380 or use a belly band for a .357 snub nose

Haha, OK. I should have specified, I'm doing the running either on our property or along the country road down the hill from us.

Interesting idea on the latter. I think we have one floating around.

Works surprisingly well, and I like the larger caliber when I know coyotes are about

Whoa, I read that too fast and it came out "I keep my clothes near the treadmill while I listen to the headphones!!"

Tried that once. It didn't go over well.

The Naked Prey... or The Naked Pray?

I once saw a group of Nudists playing volleyball in the Bahamas... it was mostly 50yr old and above, not a pretty sight!!!

I don't carry when I run.



Please direct me to the nearest, "Your an idiot for not always carrying!" Rehabilitation center.

CAR 16 Commando on a sling for the win!

Mostly I jog with a left hip Cross Draw for the big Ruger Wheel gun, it has excellent retention and in the cross draw configuration, it stays tucked in nice and tight!
The Wind Breaker covers it nicely for those "Brisk" temps, and a long loose fitting tee shirt untucked for warmer weather!

You don't "patrol" with body armor and NV while running? Shame on you!

Most excellent recommendation, and really nice rigs, I have been eye balling them for some time, need to pull the trigger one of these days and get one!

If you see me running, I hope I am packing cause there is probably a bear in hot pursuit.

Tactical yoga pants?

Get yo'self a good woman.
The kind that comes to the marriage with guns.
The kind that looks at a 4-Runner and thinks, this could use a .50 Cal.
The kind that'll drive that sucker behind you so you can enjoy the misty morning air.

Or just get a treadmill.

Your call.

I run with the dog. Usually it's early AM and no side arm, just ID on a yoke. Based on what I've seen, my dog is good defense, and I'm running.
When I run with him at the park, I have my OWB high-ride holster at 8:30. The gun is snapped in, doesn't shake much on my hip. My bigger concern has been my clothes riding up on the holster and it becoming open carry.
Edit to add, because I want to keep my hips and knees active for the next 40 years, I've started reusing my rowing ergometer - it's like sprinting hills.

I use a Hill People chest pack while biking and my daughter uses one while running. Mine carries a G43.
