The key is to travel in groups. That's what I tell my daughter who's off at college. Run in a pack. The predators will look for easier game. ***********************
I agree with you on this. How often do we hear of women/girls who go off by themselves and end up dead? There is definitely safety in numbers.

It is not often easy to find another runner or hiker to go with you when you want to go.
And sometimes one likes to be alone in nature.It’s unfortunate that women don’t have the ability to be this free.
I despise guns but I think that I would have to have mace or something to protect myself or I probably wouldn't enjoy either activity, I would be looking over my shoulder all the time.
This is a very sad story and I agree with a previous poster; was that law enforcement person tempted to follow along and did he fight the urge?
So many “ifs”.
