Theme for March’s LSoM 2024 is Runners safety.

Following are the key points to consider to understand whats safe running.

Chase your goal gradually; consistency is the key. Practice delayed gratification. Say no to too fast too soon.
Engage all your senses. Avoid multitasking while running. Headphones/calls can ignore early sound cues. Obey traffic rules.
Be visible in the surroundings. Explore reflectors, lights, and bright clothing.
Listen to your body; stay hydrated, identify discomfort, pain, and rest.
Running is best experienced with your run buddy.
Learn life saving skills like CPR and first aid.

ChatGPT created a poem using this; after some tweaks.

In the rhythm of the road,
Our journey’s begun, promoting safe running under the sun.
Chase goals with patience,
Consistency’s key, delay gratification, let it be.

Engage your senses, be alert,
No multitasking, for safety’s comfort, assert.
Be visible, bright and clear,
Reflectors, lights, to all, make it appear.

Listen to your body’s plea,
Stay hydrated, pain-free, let it be.
Running’s journey, shared with glee,
With a buddy, through all, until the last spree.

Be ready to lend a hand,
In times of need, be the one who can.
With CPR and first aid in your sight,
Help save lives, with knowledge bright.

So warm up, body and soul,
Step into the light, let the spirit roll.
With these principles, firm and bright,
Run conscious, run strong, under the delight’s light.
