Stuck out like a sour thumb

I went for a run early Friday morning in Beijing rush hour traffic. I went for an hour and didn't see a single white person. I might as well have been wearing a Bozo the clown costume based on their reaction. The little kids pointed and laughed, the adults stared, a few of the soldiers yelled something that I don't think meant "welcome to China." No one said anything except one old lady gave me a big toothless smile and a thumbs up as if to say "I hope you out run whoever is chasing you."
