Yeah! This is part of the tactical aspect that makes TFT interesting. The front hex engagement rule and the way initiative works means you have to consider how you close on someone, and sometimes engaging them if they truly can outrun you even without being able to attack that turn has merit.
My suggestion is play by the rules if you want to enjoy TFT combat at a higher level. Otherwise, it turns into other loosy goosy role playing combat where you don't even need a map, just tell the GM who you want to hit and roll some d100 dice for results....snoooooze. ;)
