As joggijg seasoj begijs, Sheriff’s offer safety tips
• Take a whistle with you.
• Don’t wear a radio/headset/earphones or
anything which distracts you from being
completely aware of your environment.
• Avoid unpopular areas, deserted streets,
lonely trails — and especially avoid unlight-
ed routes at night.
• Vary the route and the time of day you
run.
• Run in familiar areas. Note the location
of neighbors you trust along your route.
• Know where police are usually to be
found and where businesses, stores and
offices are likely to be open and active.
Every runner should take a few moments
and consider their safety while running.
While running is generally a safe activity,
there are still perils worth considering and
preparing for.
For example running at night, while often
pleasant due to lower temperatures and
decreased traffic, brings with it the added
danger of decreased visibility. The weather
can pose running safety risks, such as run-
ning in extremely hot or cold weather, which
require special precautions in addition to
running in inclement weather.
Before the Run
• Consider running with a partner. Leave
word with someone or write down where
you plan to run and when you will return.
• Carry some I. D. and a cell phone.

increase success.
There are still a few spring
Chinook available in the
Wilson River, although num-
bers will be low. Bobber and
eggs or sand shrimp, drift fish-
ing, back bouncing, and divers
and bait are all good tech-
niques for springers; these fish
can be finicky but are worth
the effort.
There are some nice cut-
throat around, and these
aggressive fish can be fun to
catch. Most of the rivers are
restricted to artificial lures and
flies above tidewater until Aug.
31, so check the regulations
before you go.

If Confronted
• Run toward populated areas, busy streets,
open businesses.
• Ignore jeers and verbal harassment. Keep
moving.
• Use discretion in acknowledging strang-
ers. Be friendly, but keep your distance and
keep moving.
• Do not approach a car to give directions
or the time of day. Point toward the nearest
police or information source, shrug your
shoulders, but keep moving. If you feel you
must respond, do it while moving.
• Don’t panic and don’t run toward a more
isolated area.

tion.
Take notice of who is ahead of you and
who is behind you. Know where the nearest
public sites are with some general activity
— there is usually safety in numbers.
• When in doubt, follow your intuition
and avoid potential trouble. If something
seems suspicious, do not panic, but run in a
different direction.
• Run clear of parked cars, bushes and
dark areas.
• Run against traffic so that you can
observe the approach of automobiles.
• If the same car cruises past you more
than once, take down even a partial license
number and make it obvious that you are
aware of its presence (but keep your dis-
tance).
