I noticed some people wearing a little wristband when I ran a 5k recently, and I asked about it. It turns out it was a product called a RoadID.

The RoadID is a form of ID that allows you to personalize up to 7 lines of laser-engraved text, and there are versions to wear on the wrist, ankle, shoe, etc.

That sounded like a great idea, since I typically just carry a key and a couple dollars when I run. And when I’m pushing myself, it feels like a feather could knock me down.

If something were to happen, I wouldn’t have ID. So, I got the wrist version of the RoadID, and look forward to getting it in the mail.
