Tip of the day: Lighten up your nighttime run[SIZE=-1]
If you're working out on roads before sunrise or after sunset, you should make yourself visible to drivers. Wear white or bright outer layers, or consider buying a reflective vest or a small, battery-powered flashing red light that you can clip to your jacket or bike. And try to work out in well-lighted areas. You'll be less likely to trip and fall, and you'll feel safer all-around. And*sometimes two or more is better than one. Find a buddy to run with. You'll be that much more obvious in your reflective gear and you'll feel less vulnerable being out in the dark.
