In detail

What should you watch out for?

Practical insights to help you prepare for this situation.

Choose safe routes and times

Train on busy, well-lit routes whenever you can. Avoid isolated paths and industrial areas, especially at dusk. Vary your route and your timing to avoid predictable patterns — routine makes you more vulnerable.

Visibility and reachability

Wear reflective clothing or a light at dusk and in the dark. Always carry your phone and make sure it is charged. With one earbud in or at low volume you can still hear traffic and your surroundings — that is safer than full isolation.
