Enhancing Female Runner Safety with Safely
At Safely, we are deeply committed to supporting female runners by ensuring they have the knowledge and tools they need to stay safe. We understand the unique challenges women face while running and have developed several initiatives to help address these concerns. Here’s how we are making a difference:
1. Female Runners Safety Summit
We are proud to be a part of the Female Runners' Safety Summit, alongside companies like Running Mate, Pretty Deadly Self-Defense, FittSafe, and Shanna Birchett.
About the Female Runners' Safety Summit: "Welcome to the Female Runners' Safety Summit, established in 2024 by a dedicated group of women committed to ending violence against female runners. Our summit is dedicated to empowering women through community support, education, and heightened safety awareness, not only during their runs but also in their daily activities. Our mission is clear: we will continue our efforts until women everywhere feel secure while engaging in activities such as running, walking, biking, shopping, driving, and simply living their lives. Join us as we work together to put an end to violence against women, one step at a time."
2. Expert-Backed Safety Tips on Social Media
Our social media platforms are a hub for safety tips that are carefully curated and backed by safety experts. Whether it's advice on the best routes to take, how to stay aware of your surroundings, or the importance of running with a buddy, our tips are designed to provide practical and actionable advice for female runners. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook to stay updated with our latest posts. If you're looking for some quick safety tips, check out our post on "Safety Tips for Your Next Run."
3. Reliable Safety Products
Our range of safety products is specifically designed for female runners. Compact, easy to carry, and simple to use, our pepper sprays and other self-defense tools provide runners with reliable protection. The Safely Sidekick, our flagship product, is a must-have for any female runner looking to enhance their safety on the go.
4. Pop-Up Events at Running Clubs
We actively participate in various running clubs and host pop-up events where we teach runners how to use pepper spray effectively. These events provide hands-on training and valuable self-defense techniques. We’ve held events at Fleet Feet and The Loop Running Store, where attendees learned how to use our products and gained confidence in their safety while running.
