Sometimes there's some sketchy looking people hanging around on the bleachers which makes me fill a little uncomfortable while unarmed. Nobody has ever threatened me or said anything to me, but still. If I remember correctly, it's ok as long as there is no school related event going on at the time. Is that correct?

Welcome to the forum. I've considered carrying when I run/jog, but can't figure out how to carry without hurting myself during that activity. How do you do it?

I carry a J-frame in the pocket of my shorts when I run. I don't wear the typical running shorts... a little too short for my tastes, but tend to stick with something closer to basketball shorts, and I wear a pair of compression shorts underneath. They usually come down to just above my knees. I've done speed work and intervals on a treadmill this way. I've run anything from a 5k to a full marathon this way. I keep the pistol in a small pocket holster to help keep it from bouncing around. Admittedly, on longer runs it will start to knock against my leg to the point where it can get a little bit uncomfortable. I've considered pinning the pocket to my compression shorts to see if that will help, but haven't had a chance to try it out, yet.
