A few months ago, it dawned on me (as I was doing a long run all alone), what if something happens to me in the middle of my run? Like I get injured, hit by a car, robbed etc. I'm all alone, no cellphone (don't bring it when I run), hardly bring money (only small bills), no wallet, no ID. If people find me hurt or injured, they won't know who to call.
So I decided to get myself a Road ID. It easily attaches onto your shoelaces. Mine even nicely match my running shoes (my New Balance 1063 - will write up a blog post on those soon). My Road ID contain my name, my husband's phone number, and my Dad's phone number. There are other models aside from the shoelace type. You can get those that are for the wrist or the ankle.
I've got more peace of mind now (so does my hubby) when I do my long runs.
Check them out at Road ID. Mine cost $19.99.
