Im sure some of you all run in the dark. I have tried to get used to it a couple of times, with the short days I can only run on a Dreadmill or give it up to the darkness four days a week. Where I run it is rural America black top streets with no street lights, oncoming motorists rarely dim their lights trying to figure out what this nut is doing running in the road in pitch black. The upsides are you cant see the smirks on the faces of the FatA** drivers when they go by giving you the " I can run that fast look", and no UV rays. summertime please come back anyone else?

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
I don't wear the lights - because I get less heckling when the drivers can't see me.
What you failed to mention is that you formally went all out when it came to blink blink...
