Daylight Saving Time ended Sunday morning. For runners who can’t take advantage of brighter mornings and can’t get out midday, that means finding the right gear to illuminate any run after 5 p.m. As we talked about last year at this time, there are a variety of good headlamps out there. There is also a range of hand-held flashlights. But, did you know about the option to wear a light around your waist? We recently tested the GoMotion LiteBelt 100($59.95) to see how it measures up for running in the dark.Check it out at: http://gear.runnersworld.com/2011/11/tested-gomotion-litebelt-100.html

When choosing how to light your path while trail running, you have a ton of options for lights to hold in your hand or to wear on your head, but that’s about it. GoMotion has decided to give you another option …full review on irunfar.com
For hands-free night walking, running or hiking, this LED lightbelt is a great solution. It is lightweight and it runs on 3 AA batteries that should last a long time. The front spotlight has three brightness levels, beam width adjustment, and swivels to get the best angle. The rear pack has two red safety flashers. It has two zip pockets for small essentials. I found it less distracting to walk with vs. a headlamp. (more…)
