2. Drawing a gun from ankle carry is awkward at best and tactically nearly impossible at worst.

The #1 rule in a gunfight is ----- don't get shot. Which, for most people, means move your arse and get behind some cover.

Drawing from an ankle holsters, while running, is difficult for non-ninjas.

To the OP -- have you considered something as basic as untucking your polo shirt ???

I'm asking, because most people, given a choice, rank personal safety as being more important than personal fashion.

Untucking the shirt (one could even explore the world of camp shirts) will give you the option of OWB carry, which will allow you to choose a quality//reliable gun (M&P, Glock, HK or Sig) that holds a reasonable quantity of ammo, and is reasonably easy to control.

The foregoing is based on the presumption that you plan to carry on a regular basis (i.e. 365 days per year). But I understand that very few people (on this board, or in general) do. In which case your carry method becomes much less important.

If you allow yourself to be steered to a mousegun, the pocket carry option that TOTH suggested will be a LOT better than ankle carry.
