How Effective Is It To Run For Self Defense?
Can you just run and defend yourself?
You cannot give an answer to this question with yes or no. Both can be correct. Today we are going to talk about this, even if you run, what might happen and how effective it is to run for self defense.
Something can be right for someone else, but not for you. On the other hand, you are good at something, so you can do that to defend yourself, but not the guy or girl who is not able to do that. You cannot give a single solution that works for everybody.
Again there are situations you cannot run or if you run, you cannot get out from there. So there is no point in running.
The worst thing that happens when you run is you are showing your back. And you have no idea what the attacker is about to do. If he catches you from behind, it is easier for the attacker to attack you. And it would be difficult to defend that unless you turn and face the attacker.
Another question comes when you run is, how fast can you run? If you are not fast enough, they will catch you. In case there are multiple attackers, there is a high chance someone will run faster than you and catch you. Now you are exhausted because of running, you cannot do much to fight back.
If the attacker has a gun and you run in a straight line, he might shoot you, and you know what would happen. You can run in a zigzag, that's better in this situation.
Running can be a solution but it might not work in every situation. Ultimately, you have to face the attackers. It is always better to learn self defense that helps you deal with the situation successfully.
If you can run, get out of there and defend yourself, that's great. You can do that. You also need to consider other possibilities when you run.
So what do you think about running as a defense? Please feel free to share your thought in the comment section. Thank you so much for reading this post. Stay safe. Always be happy!
