Safety;

For those of you avid runners and bikers that run and ride on the road, you are most likely already aware of this, so this is aimed more at those that are part time road bikers and runners unaware of the rules of the road. When biking or running on the road at any time of the day, you must take the mindful action to go with the flow of traffic and if running or biking at night or early morning, when it is dark, reflective clothing and reflective tape or bolt on reflective aparatus is recommended. Lately i see this more and more and i know it is not those of you who do this on a daily basis but perhaps you are in a club or have friends that are new to this practice and can bring this safety precaution to their attention. Nothing derails a long term training goal faster than an injury, espically if that injury involves being hit by a car, if you even live through the injury to be able to heal from it. So please, pass this information on to anyone you know to be an avid road runner or biker, espically those that you know are new to the practice. It is as simple as crossing the street to avoid costly injuries, financially as well as physically! As usual, regardless of your chosen sport, Train hard and smart!
