is it weird when older people see 14-15 year olds out running?

i have to get in shape for soccer pre season in august so i have to start running, but unfortunately, i dont have a treadmill in my house so i have to go out running. i dont know if this is a self esteem problem or anything, but when i go running alone i feel its awkward because when grown ups pass me or older teenagers i feel like theyre thinking that i think im so cool or whatever since im out running. im going to be a freshman at high school and im short so i dont know if people think im younger than i am, but do older people think its weird or stupid when they see kids my age out running?
 
you seem a bit self concious. when im out and i see people running, im usually thinking wow they have a lot of self disipline going out running on there own. If anything people would be envious that your working toowards somethign while they are not. You'll get used to it eventually

I nkow what you mean thouhg, i hate when people watch me when im running. But its more important to get in shape for pre season than it is to be self concious of people watching you run
 
dunno. i'm 14 and when i run, i don't really care what they think. sure some people stare, but most are probably thinking "good for you, you're getting some excercise". just run, it's good excercise.
