Certainly I can see be benefits of avoiding amblers, dog walkers and repeated side entrances, but I suppose the answer is why do people do anything?
Some won't be aware of the dangers, some will run on with traffic as that is the side they'd drive / ride on, some might be on that side as that's the side they started on, or thats the side they want to be on when they get wherever they're going. Short of stopping and asking them I guess we'll never know.
Ha ha very true. I assumed there would be a definitive reason, or it was encouraged by running clubs or similar, maybe there are just various reasons for different people. I still don't get why so many do it though, even acknowledging the reasons stated, some of them don't affect some runner who still decide to run on the road? I guess we may never entirely know
