when you go out walking(or running) bring some kind of i.d. with you and a cell phone. We had a woman who walks in my neighborhood (but lives elsewhere) have a seizure out in the street here(quiet street). She had no id but luckily her cell phone had a home number listed and the emt's were able to contact her family.

I sometimes walk without either, but i sure don't want to be the 'unknown lady' in someone else's neighborhood.

If I go out to walk, usually it is to the 7-11.. but I always try to bring id and a credit card and when I was walking more, I'd slip in my insurance card for good measure. I have my front door key on a stretchy bracelet cord around my wrist and travel light.

Unless I'm bringing stuff home, then a small backpack is included.

I can't imagine going out without ID. I take my purse EVERYWHERE and it's got everything in it but the kitchen sink. It's awful about the lady collapsing... hope she got timely medical care, even without her id.

I think the salient point is going out just to walk, when carrying a purse would not be a good thing, you want your body to be in balance.. of course same for jogging/running. You want to travel light, but just not TOO light..

Sea, most runners/joggers/power-walkers I know wear fanny paks. Same as a purse but not as unwieldy, and $/keys/id are always handy.

I programed ICE numbers into my phone.

ICE1 is, DH, home
ICE2 is, DH, cell
ICE3 is, DH, work (he has a direct line)
ICE4 is, oldest DS, cell
ICE5 is youngest DS, cell

You can also up a label from a label maker on your phone that says, ICE. Emergency personal knows what it means. For the most part I always have my ID on me, but cell phone is always, always with me. My concern is for my daughter. If I ever had an accident where she is with me and I couldn't speak. Emergency can get a hold of my family for her info. My ID tells nothing about her.
