Cut and past from Rev3Tri😨 Swim Safety Tips (pool): * Let someone know when, where and how long you will be gone * If possible, swim with a friend or training partner * Make sure you have a laminated emergency card with important information poolside (I put mine under my water bottle) Swim Safety Tips (open water): * Let someone that will stay on land know when, where and how long you will be out on the water * Never go open water swimming alone. Make sure you have a friend or training partner with you. This could be someone on shore that can see you during your entire route, a friend in a paddle craft in the vicinity of your route, or a fellow swimmer staying close to you. * Make sure you wear a swim cap in a bright color for high visibility * Have your ID and/or emergency card in a location that is visible to emergency responders waterside (for example, in a backpack on the dock) Running & Cycling Safety Tips * Let someone know your planed route and duration of workout. If this is not convenient make sure to write down your planned route, duration of workout, and start time. Leave this in your house or on your desk at work. * While cycling obey all traffic laws. This means staying in bike lanes and stopping at stop signs and red lights. * While running obey all pedestrian laws. This means crossing at designated crosswalks and waiting for proper crossing signals. * Turn down your music! If you are unable to hear the sounds of your bike or the strides of your feet, your music is too loud. In addition to turning down the music, try using only one earbud. * Make sure you have some sort of identification, whether it be a government issued ID or a wearable ID band. * Wear highly visible clothing in all light conditions.
