Running lights come in a variety of styles, so we’ll provide recommendations for each below. Common Types of Running Lights

Run Against Traffic: When running on roads without dedicated running paths, it’s safer to run against the flow of traffic. This gives oncoming vehicles a better chance to see you and react accordingly, reducing the risk of accidents. Also, these waterproof running lights come in a variety of colours, and they require two AAA batteries to work.

LifeLine Cycle Safe Light Set

One of the major problems with handheld torches is light bounces everywhere while you run. Keep your hands-free on dark runs with our lights that clip into your belt, water vest, or even body. They are built with impact and water-resistant technology to withstand rain, ice, and snow. Clip On Flashlight Running Lights Shoe lights are beneficial to runners as it helps them see where their feet are landing to avoid accidents. These running lights are resistant to impact and are totally hands-free but they do not have visibility for eye level. This means that runners wearing these will have to supplement with other types of running lights. What other accessories can help keep you safe when running in the dark evenings and early morning? Let’s dig in! featured here Nathan Sports Why is Visibility Important? Proviz Sports uses REFLECT360, a material embedded with reflective glass beads that make you visible from all angles. As you can see, there are a ton of options out there that will basically make you look like a runaway Christmas tree (hint hint: that’s what you want!). The more visible you are, the safer you’ll arguably be.

This running light set comes with two running lights that can you strap to both your hands and they provide extra-wide flood beams that make it easy for you to see your running path.

For seeing, we recommend a light with a high lumen count—200 to 500 is ideal—and a steady beam. Some fancier lights can also switch between a spotlight and a floodlight, allowing you to change your depth of field on the fly if you’re changing speeds. The one issue: A steady beam isn’t always going to catch the attention of others, even if it’s bright, so it’s not best to bring only this light on a road run, especially if you run in the street. Chest Lights: Chest lights are worn on the chest and provide a central source of illumination. They are designed to minimize shadows and improve depth perception, making them suitable for trail runners and those navigating uneven terrain. Armbands enable runners to be seen in low visibility areas but they can be used by others like emergency personnel. These running lights come in different colours and you can wear multiple ones to be more visible. Some of them don’t hold MP3 devices and the light discharge is quite small and not specific to one direction.
