Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I share my running route?

If something happens — an injury, a fall, or a medical emergency — someone needs to know where to find you. Sharing your route takes seconds and could save your life.

What visibility gear should I wear?

Wear bright, reflective clothing especially during dawn, dusk, or night runs. Reflective vests, LED armbands, and light-colored shoes all help drivers and others see you.

Should I run with headphones?

If you run with headphones, keep the volume low enough to hear traffic, other people, and your surroundings. Consider bone-conduction headphones that keep your ears open.
