Run Safe

DISCLAIMER: I received my Road ID to review as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador), and check out BibRave.com to review, find, and write race reviews.

How many times have you gone for a run with no identification? How many races have you ran and not filled out the emergency contact information or carried an identification card? I'm guilty of both numerous times; why? Because I had false security, somebody could retrieve my family's contact information from my phone in case of an emergency. But what if no one answers because they don't recognize the number? How will the first responders know who you are? If you have any medical conditions? Or how to treat you properly? The answer is simple: it's time to invest in a roadid wrist bracelet, a sidekick, or a shoe id tag.

I had heard about road id from several runners, but I never stopped long enough to place my order, but now that I have the bracelet and the shoe id tag, I don't know how I felt safe without it. The wrist id is available in various colors including my favorite color, red. The all-weather silicone band is comfortable and ready for movement. ROAD ID looks good on and makes a statement about your athletic lifestyle because you can wear it every day all day. I almost forgot the best part: the engraving plate is large enough to display two emergency contacts and a motivational three-word statement.

Suppose you're not a bracelet person, or you feel like you would forget to put the band on before runs. In that case, I recommend you try the Shoe ID, a 3M stripe with a visible medical grade stainless steel plate that displays your medical information attached to your shoelaces.

Remember, you may not be able to speak for yourself in times of emergencies, but Road ID will speak for you and possibly save your life.
