How can I safely Jogging at night?

Running at night is generally not the safest option, especially for women, but taking precautions can reduce the risks associated with running at night. Wear reflective clothing, jog in well-lighted areas and take your own light fixtures to check for possible hazards and ensure that the oncoming vehicles will see you. Some of the most common accidents related to night-time jogging are often car crashes because of poor eyesight. Running with a partner is safer than running alone. Experienced joggers are advised to take their cell phones to the other person at night to run alone.

Reflex vests, running pants and jackets specially designed for night runners are available from most sporting goods stores. They are usually bright fluorescent, such as yellow, orange or green, and are easily visible when light comes in. If you run against the traffic flow of traffic next to the road, the driver can clearly see the driver when the headlight hits the cloth reflected in the night jogging suit. Simple eye contact with vehicle drivers also increases the chances that they will meet you and provides ample space to safely run at night.

If you choose a relatively flat, well-managed jogging path, running at night is generally safer. Trails with slopes and switchbacks are not the best choice for nighttime driving, as they are prone to missing risk factors such as rocks, tree roots and sudden grading changes. Carrying a carrying flashlight in your hand can be awkward, so a handy alternative is a battery-operated headlamp that wraps your head with a stretchy band and allows you to clearly see your path ahead.

Boundaries are one of the most important safety measures, running at night. If you leave your portable music player and headphones at home, you may hear a noise that may cause problems. This practice also helps to keep the boundaries around in all directions. To avoid possible attackers during the run, plan a few different routes to keep jogging at night and change each route one evening
