, visibility can be low, and it's important to make sure you're seen. Christian Allen, product expert at Runner's Need, told Metro.co.uk: 'You need to do all you can to make sure you're seen – particularly on roads. It is vital you invest in some high visibility pieces.' Chris also warns that planning is key. He says: 'Understanding where you're running is essential to staying safe – particularly when it's dark.
