Light It Up!

It's now dark for most of our run. It's like we're up before the world. Truckers go by after stopping to fill up on gas down the road, on their way to their next stop. Cars with people on their way to early morning jobs drive by, their headlights blinding us momentarily. Or perhaps they are on their way home from a late night shift, relieved to almost be home and able to crawl into bed. 

And there's Henri and I, running. I wonder how many of these people have seen us repeatedly over the last several weeks, though now they aren't sure it's us because it's dark. They can't really tell.

Oh, it's us alright. You can now tell because I whipped out our LED lights. Now we are glowing blue. Henri's collar matches my arm bands and we light up the night...er, morning.

Now they will see the glowing blue lights and now that it's us. And they will see us. Also important in the wee hours of the morning. Safety first, people! Safety first.
