I saw 3 syringes in the last 12 nmonths, one of the 3 times it was
when I was walking and in temperature I would never have been able
to barefoot. So to be honest it was 2 times (not 3) when I was
running.

Will it prevent me to try barefoot running? No. But if I do it where
there is higher probabilty (as I have already explained it in the
past
the fact that there is prostitution and by consequences hard dope
users makes the probabity simpy higher) to see one I will make sure
I have the conditions enabling me to spot it right away.

I see no big problem with this but I do not see the usefullness to
deny it and pretend it comes from my imagination. 8;-)
