Unfortunately, we are in a world where distracted driving injures or even kills pedestrians often. It's not unusual to see people driving in their cars, heads down without a care in the world - glued to their phones like a monkey to a banana. It's sad, really.
I don't know about you, but that is pretty scary. It's even more scary as a runner. Because most of my running happens in the wee hours of the morning, oftentimes I run in total darkness. I absolutely need to take extra precautions so that I am safe and I am seen!
I have been using these strips for almost one year now and they have been amazing. Brilliant Reflective strips are extremely easy to use and are a MUST for added reflection. They can be used on multiple items, from bike helmets to dog leashes. They also come in four different colors and two varieties: iron-on and stick-on.
Each package has different sizes that are easily affixed and all can be cut according to your specific size needs. I had a little fun on my last run with the strips! I wonder if cars thought I was funny??
Brilliant Reflective designed these strips to activate the bio-motion of a person. Place these strips to accentuate your human form for even more visibility! They are the highest reflection possible in a strip and actually bounce light back to the source. Can you image what a driver will see when the light of their headlights bounces back to them?
I am truly in love with these strips. I use the iron-on strips on gear that I don't wash often, such as my winter running jacket. I use the stick on strips on other clothing and gear. The iron-on strips are permanent once fixed. But, I have washed this particular tank top three times since this picture and the stick-on strips are still there!
Plus, if you don't think that Brilliant Reflective is already cool, they are donating 500K in strips to running clubs and non-profits. They feel that every person needs to have the extra protection to be safe. If you want more info check out the link here.
Also, you can now score 20% off the Multi-packs of strips with code "BRPmulti."
These strips are affordable and help me to be safe and seen. I am so happy to be wearing these on my morning runs!
