Night Running NoxgerGear Tracer 2 Review
If you follow me on Instagram and read my blog regular, you might have heard me mentioning our local running club and me starting to meet up twice a week with two friends to run at 4:45 in the morning. Running club meets once a week at 6PM and both of those times are dark, especially the morning run. I have been wearing a reflecting belt but many in our group have been wearing and/or purchasing a Noxgear Tracer2 visibility vest.
The vest is made of multi LED fiber optics with a reflective belt. There are quite a few color settings and the 20 hour battery is rechargeable with a USB. It is very light and easy to put on.
I love how it makes you visible before someone’s headlights glare at you and can be seen from a distance up to 1/4 mile.
It is a litle investment at $59.99 but with me using it 4-5 times a week in the winter and a few times a week in the summer, I think it is a good investment. My friends have a two year model that still works perfectly. I feel pretty cool wearing it and it makes me feel safe.
A bientôt!

Oh that is such a good thing! I see a lot of runners that you see in the last few seconds as they don’t wear a light or anything. Great !

4.45am?! I’m so impressed Mireille! And the vest is a great buy. My husband runs a lot and wears reflective clothing. Thanks for linking

You are such an early riser but what a great way to stay fit! I can imagine a vest like this is really neccessary when running in the dark! What a great buy!
Jennifer

Is that what those are called? We were in one of the local parks where the Christmas lights are and a group of runners went by. I just figured they’d rigged up something themselves. I need to get one for my son as he often goes for a walk or run in the evening.

Wow! That is so cool. There’s a guy in our neighborhood that runs in the dark. I never see him till I’m practically right on top of him. I’m always afraid someone will hit him. We don’t have sidewalks, so he just runs on the side of the road.

Sounds like he needs one of these!
