A graduate of Montreal’s Concordia University, Heidi Jewell now resides in Denver, having previously lived in Nashville. Beyond her work as a senior account executive with Denver’s VOCO Creative, Heidi Jewell maintains her fitness by running. The following are some safety tips that all runners should keep in mind:
1. Be visible – Always wear bright, reflective clothing to make yourself as visible as possible while running. This is particularly crucial, during winter when the days are shorter and gloomy conditions are more likely.
2. Carry ID – Keep some form of identification on your person at all times, just in case an accident happens and emergency responders need to find out who you are. Further, bring a cell phone and a list of emergency contacts.
3. Assume cars can’t see you – Even if you are wearing the most visible clothing you can find, you should always act as though drivers can’t see you. Give vehicles plenty of space and stop to reach a safe spot when passing cars on narrow roads.
