Turns out chav teens don't like the whistle. As I sprinted up the hill one refused to look up from his phone (group of ten or so, blocking whole shared path).
It was claimed I spat at him, I assured him quite assertively I whistled. Tit for tat, and threatened yards away by one holding a bottle in a throwing gesture, I just offered "c'mon chase me or something, I'll go easy". They gave up and walked on. Quite disappointed all in all.
Don't whistle at chavs, also don't bet on them chasing for a leg stretcher.
