  • Ensure someone you trust knows that you are headed out for a run or cycle, has an idea of the route you plan to take and when you should be returning.
  • If you have children with you, keep a close eye on them and teach them about stranger danger.
  • Wear reflective clothing to make sure you are visible.
  • It is always better to walk, run or cycle with a friend.
