Hi all,
Sure this has been asked before but couldn't find it in a quick search of the forum.
As nights are now dark and the head torches are coming out I wanted to know what others do for safety when running on your own? As a first year fell runner this issue has never really come up before but my Myo XP is on order and I am itching for a few good long night runs.
Do you let others know where you are running? Full route or just general area? Do you stick to lower level stuff? Do you never run nights solo?
I have never really told anyone where I will be running or when I will be back but always been not too far from general walkers. Now the good weather walkers are thinning out and in night time you are on your tod up there so what is considered good practice?
Also, say I didn't report back to base (the wife) is first call (after trying my mobile) to mountain rescue or police or both?
Any suggestions grateful as otherwise I will get grounded from the wife
