Just stay to the right!
This is part of a park road, which is also very popular with cyclists, runners, and pedestrians. It has become more common for runners to not only run with headphones, which reduce ambient noise and awareness but also disregard common safety practices. In FL, the pedestrian/runner must stay on the left side of the roadway and walk/run on the shoulder of the oncoming traffic. This runner was not only in the middle of the road, he was completely unaware of his surroundings and, despite yelling "on your left," continued to veer to the left, almost causing me to go off of the road.
