Could you go on the run?

I think it’s harder than most would believe. My first impulse would be the country but I think you would have to leave the country.
The key is figuring out what's the least you'd need to live on? Can't run to the store whenever you need something so you're going to do without a lot. I'd head to the woods myself and take only what I'd need to survive. Bow, fishing stuff, and a shelter.
