pU b Li s h e R ’ s Let te R
It’s cold. It’s dark. But you’re deter-
mined to stick to your training plan and get in
your miles. Unfortunately, this time of year, you
often have to run in the dark. Whether you get
up and get active early in the morning or you
log your miles at night when you get home from
work, it’s important to stay safe. The long days
of winter with diminished light can make it
difficult to head out the door and stay on top of
your training schedule. Stay safe while running
this winter with these tips.
1. Light Up –
Be visible to drivers by
wearing light-colored clothing that lights up.
You can add flashing lights to your hat, wear a
jacket with reflective accents, put on a headlamp,
wear a light on your armband, carry a flashlight,
wear knuckle lights, wear a light on your waist
belt, or whatever works for you. Make sure that
you are visible from both the front and the back.
The more, the better. The reflective material
on basic running clothing isn’t usually enough.
Just because you can see a car headed your way
doesn’t mean a car can see you. Being seen is
the number one way to stay safe when it’s dark
outside.
2. Listen Up –
Stay in tune to your sur-
roundings when it’s dark outside. Listen for cars,
bikers, and other noises while you run. Leave
your iPod at home or save it for your treadmill
workouts. If you’re addicted to running to music, keep the volume as low as possible. Run against
traffic. Stay off busy roads or use sidewalks. Whenever possible, run with a friend or running group.
Vehicles will more easily see a group of runners wearing reflective clothing than a solo runner.
3. Fuel Up –
Don’t get stranded in the cold. Make sure you hydrate and fuel up before your
run. If you’ve ever had the water freeze in your hydration pack like I have, you know that you can’t
always depend on things to go your way in the dead of winter.
4. Wear I.D. –
Carry your cell phone. Take a Road I.D. or other identification, such as your
driver’s license, with you. Tell someone where you’re going or leave a note. Run in populated areas
that are well lit.
5. Choose a well-lit route –
It may not be your favorite neighborhood loop, but a well-lit
route is your best bet when it’s dark. Oncoming traffic will be able to better see you and you will be
able to keep an eye on any obstacles in the road. If possible, create a few running loops that you check
out during daylight hours so you know where the curbs and potholes are located. If you familiarize
yourself with the road surface before your nighttime run, you will be able to maintain a steadier, more
relaxed pace, even though it’s dark outside.
Use these tips to stay safe and enjoy your run this winter when exercising in the dark.

Running in the Dark
Happy trails!

here’s just one more reason to get fit!
exercising three or more times a week leads to 6% higher pay for
men and 10% for women, according to a research study at cleveland
state. the hike is due to exercise-induced productivity boosts.
