Reflective Running Gear - Make Yourself Visible!

Whether you want to loose some weight or you just want to keep yourself healthy: Running is a great exercise. But because schedules of most peoples today are quite busy it is hard to find a convenient space in your calendar to write "running" in it. Many folks, myself included, are forced to do their exercise either in the early morning or in the late evening. But to do outdoor exercise in the dark has its dangers and to wear reflective running gear is mandatory.

You Want To Be As Visible As Possible!
This can't be stressed enough. When you are running in the dark while wearing some dark clothes you make yourself hard to see, especially for drivers. And no one wants to get hit by a car, right? Besides it is so easy to choose between the many different types of reflective running gear nowadays.

Reflective Shoes

Almost all running shoes you can buy today already have some sort of reflective stripes on them. Some shoes even have a reflective soles or reflective shoe laces. But be aware that wearing reflective shoes is not quite enough, because you need to be visible from every position and angle.

Reflective Bands

You can buy reflective bands in every imaginable size and color. There are sweatbands, wristbands, ankle-straps and many more. They are dirt cheap and you can get reflective bands almost everywhere. So why don't you just drop by at your local sports outfitter today. Remember: reflective bands might save your life one day.

Reflective Vests

To wear a reflective vest is the best thing you can do to make yourself visible and i highly recommend to buy one when you find yourself running in the dark quite often. But more one thing (And I know that might sound pretty obvious to you): Please do not hide your reflective vest underneath your normal running jacket. It renders the whole idea of making yourself visible useless. Besides, quality reflective running gear is designed to be used under outside conditions and will keep you warm.
