I have had a few comments about the tag that is attached to my shoe that has my identifacation on it. That is called a Road ID tag. It is like an identification bracelet that you can personalize. I would highly recommend buying one and wearing it always. I like it as a coach because if something were to happen to you I could quickly call the number on your tag to inform them about your condition.
There are different options for tags, there is a wrist tag, a necklace, the shoe tag, and I believe an ankle tag. Check out all the options on the website. They are well worth the money. I have purchased one for my running shoes and another wrist one for when I am cycling or hiking.
I just bought one of these myself for my shoe as I don’t like to run with my cell phone. There was just a guy last week on the local news who died running and they were having problems identifying him. This also happened to a close friend of ours – died running, no ID. Everyone should have some kind of ID on themselves!

Wow Patty! I had no idea! I agree wholeheartedly about ID, you just never know what could happen anywhere, anytime!
