I live in a rural community in the middle of nowhere. I do not own a treadmill. I do not belong to a gym.
I run often, everywhere, and always.
The weather does not necessarily restrict me from getting my run in. I run in extreme heat (118*). I run in the rain. I run in the hail. I run in the wind.
I run by myself. I run while pushing a double jogger. I run when my oldest rides his bike next to me. I run when my husband rides his bike next to me.
The point is… I am always running. I make it a priority to get out there and run.
There have been moments on my runs where my personal safety has been questioned and in danger. I have encountered rogue cars driving wildly down our street. I have been chased by loose wild dogs. I have clutched my keys and picked up my pace when running past questionable characters.
I have wanted to purchase a Road ID for a few months now. I am excited to share that I am now a proud owner of a Wrist ID Elite.
I love how lightweight it is against my wrist. I love that the band is customizable to fit my wrist (you cut the excess band off for a perfect fit). I love that the feel is that of a lightweight watch. There are SO MANY great colors to choose from! The look is sporty, sleek, and sexy! I have even worn my wrist id out and about! LOVE IT!
Most importantly, I love how safe I feel when I am out running, hiking, walking or biking. I know that if the worst scenario DOES happen… I have my identification on me and the correct people can be contacted.
I am embarrassed to admit that I have been a runner for many years… and this is the first time I have run with identification. I now know that I will always run with Road ID. This bracelet gives me (and my husband) the peace of mind to know that if I were in danger, my ID informs others who I am and my emergency contact information.
Did you know:
Each year over 450,000 of us are taken to hospitals unconscious and without ID. Year after year, over 122,000 runners, walkers, and cyclists are hit by cars. Thousands more suffer blackouts, concussions, heart attacks, heat strokes and other serious accidents."
Do you have the safety and peace of mind each time you head outside to run, hike, bike or walk?
No?
