Drury Cross Country Protocals

Drury Cross Country Protocols for Safe Distance Running:

1. Run defensively. Assume drivers cannot see you and are not looking out for you.

2. Run against traffic, single file if there are oncoming vehicles.

3. Obey traffic laws (red lights, etc).

4. Do not wear headsets.

5. Make yourself visible (light-colored clothing or flashing lights) if running in the dark.

5. Do not run in lightning. Seek shelter when there is a thunderstorm.

6. Avoid running alone. Run with others, especially in unfamiliar areas.
