RUN SAFE. BE SAFE.

Safety Stats Numbers Don’t Lie
Could a few small smart choices have prevented ANY of these?
68%
A 2024 study by the University of Manchester found that 68% of women runners across the UK have experienced some form of abuse while running.
A separate 2024 study of U.S. runners found that 84.2% reported at least one form of harassment in their lifetime.
Run Safe. Be Safe.
“Every run starts with a goal, but the only one that truly matters is getting home.”
