In London? No waving; no nodding. Any acknowledgment of another runner will mark you out as some kind of weirdo.
Anywhere else in the world it’s completely fine.

In Leeds it’s a mix - more likely to get a wave/acknowledgement out on a trail than on the pavement..
I do a half-hearted wave/peace-sign combo but I don’t actively look for acknowledgement like I did on the bike
I’m more conscious that I don’t want to come across as aggressive in any way so I’m not going for eye contact/shouting hello. (I also try to pass very wide and even cross to other pavement if I’m out at night rather than risk surprising someone)

Running wave etiquette? Comming from cycling where its good etiquette yo wave while out on the road I took this to running. Is there an etiquette?
