So does running in the back bay in the dark...I always feel like something is going to come out of the bushes. Most of the time its just rabbits, but I get all panicky. I know, I need to toughen up! I usually run around East Side Costa Mesa - that is where I live, so I just leave from my front door.

I might consider a vest...but man they are dorky - I already have my dorky lights and pepper spray.Nikki @ Balance and Moderationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02276273790716243096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537877047934819137.post-34465563068237483062010-12-14T09:06:55.438-08:002010-12-14T09:06:55.438-08:00This reminds me - I haven't done my annual nig...This reminds me - I haven't done my annual night running post.<br /><br />Even though you may think those relflective vess are dorky - do get one.

I think the area from the Y south along Irvine and into Westcliff is pretty safe.Glenn Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05119271602749821767noreply@blogger.com
