Keep in mind that you should keep in mind runner's etiquette when you run. For example, keep to the right of the path or sidewalk, and pass on the left, just a car in the street.
If you are going to pass someone, especially a walker, let them know before you do so. A simple "on your left" will do.
Avoid being a road hog: Never run two abreast on a trail or sidewalk. [Because I'm a nice guy: If you want to keep a conversation with someone keep in mind that a cel phone with a Bluetooth headset can be used as a walkie-talkie, and without having to hit a button constantly.]
Road signs should be adhered to, even if they might break up your rhythm. They are there for everyone's safety, and keep in mind that drivers need may ignore them, so it may not be a good idea to ignore them.
Respect property of others. Do not relieve yourself in the bushes of someone's property no matter how tempted you may be to do so.
