I would def recommend a head lamp as it keeps your hands free. I hate carrying anything when I run. They are not the height of fashion, but totally worth it. I got mine cheap too, like $7 at Big 5 Sports.mercurygrinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961750159305495783.post-30453754259191029342009-08-24T14:49:46.508-06:002009-08-24T14:49:46.508-06:00There aren't really any other people out at th...There aren't really any other people out at that time. I might run into a cyclist or two when I'm heading back and the sun's coming up, but otherwise, it's empty.<br /><br />The trail itself doesn't really go through any dangerous areas, but my main concern is being able to see if I'm going to step on a skunk or not, haha. Seriously- it was super-dark. Creepy.<br /><br />And in the event that there is a random psychopath on the trail, I'm looking at getting one of these: <a href="http://www.roadid.com/Common/default.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.roadid.com/Common/default.aspx</a>Tamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11363637998040271556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961750159305495783.post-28117420182073079902009-08-24T14:42:22.385-06:002009-08-24T14:42:22.385-06:00Interesting about the protein/fibre.

Before I started weight training, I wasn't getting enough protein, now I have shakes & lean meats often. And fibre? I put it in everything. Fibre first cereal goes into anything I can throw it into and powdered fibre supplements go into everything else!<br /><br />I have a fanny pack for running. I feel like such a tool because it is a cheap one and doesn't look great, because you know, fanny packs are suposed to look awesome! A flashlight is a good idea. Are there other people running at that hour? I love running outside at that time, it's cool out and the trails/walks are empty.. but then I feel paranoid about being mugged, or worse. I live in a nice neighbourhood, but even nice neighbourhoods have bad things happen in them. I have the perfect 5K route from my house, down a walking path, under lots of trees, it's so nice..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
