You should be proud of your self you got through a very tough situation without getting seriously hurt. Now something’s to consider preparing your self incases this ever happens again in life. The majority of Men run faster then the Majority of women (ask any coach). So if you are to chose the strategy of running it might be a good idea to take an advantage before you do (such as a kick in the groin), the bad part is I have seen people take a good groin shot and keep fighting, or in this case get up chase you down and now you have to fight more tired then you were before and you have lost the element of surprise. Another way to start off the fight would be to step on his foot and give a good shove, as long as you are still standing on his foot you will hear his ankle snap as he hits the ground. This will greatly hinder his ability to run after you, and to fight. Other than that tip, just visualize. See your self getting attacked and how you would respond “AND WIN THE FIGHT” whether that’s running away or sending him to a higher authority. Last suggestion treat fear like a friend, get comfortable with that felling, its your body telling you its ready, it makes you stronger faster and more pain tolerant (all things I want working for me) there are plenty of books on it such as “The Gift of Fear” by Gavin De Becker. And again good job, I think the statistic is 5 out of 6 women how fight back wins.
