We love seeing running stores bring their communities together to talk about safety. Recently, Fleet Feet Fresno hosted a safety session where runners learned how to properly use pepper spray and practice their aim using Safely’s practice spray.
During the event, runners had the opportunity to try Safely’s practice spray, which uses a 100% water formula so people can safely practice how to aim and use pepper spray before ever needing to rely on it in a real situation.
One of the biggest takeaways from the evening was how many runners already carry pepper spray but have never practiced using it. Taking the time to practice helps remove uncertainty and builds confidence so runners know what to do if they ever need it.
