I always wear one of these as generally you dont carry ID with you on a run and the roads are full of people who dont give a shit what is around the corner or towns are full of chavs who may just stab you for fun!

trinitrate spray?? :eek: Wow, and I thought my girlfriend's rape alarm was bad enough!

Anyway, essential items to go running:

1) Running shoes
2) A watch
