The clocks went back. The evenings got darker. And on Thursday 29 October, around 100 of you turned up in MediaCity, Salford to prove that dark nights are no reason to stop running.
The Proviz NIGHTMODE Event was our first ever in-person event. Here's how the night unfolded, the kit you told us you rely on, and the brands who helped make it happen.
The night
From 6pm, runners gathered at Brewski Quayside on The Quays. Head torches clicked on, reflective jackets came out, and the start area quickly turned into a sea of light.
At 6:30pm, our founders welcomed everyone and shared the story behind Proviz: building kit that keeps you seen, so you can keep doing what you love, day or night.
At 7pm, Manchester Road Runners led the 5km route through MediaCity. Their team designed the course, set the pace and chaperoned every runner from start to finish. Whether you're new to running or chasing a PB, nobody ran alone.
After the run came a guided cooldown, goodie bags and plenty of good conversation with the Proviz community.
Shining extra bright
Some of you took "Shine Brighter" literally. A few Proviz customers arrived wrapped in Christmas lights, and they were impossible to miss. It was the perfect reminder that being seen on a dark evening can also be a lot of fun.
Your favourite Proviz kit
We asked runners what they reach for once the nights draw in. Two pieces came up again and again.
Women's Reflective Active Gilet A lightweight layer that adds high visibility without adding bulk. Throw it over any running top and you're ready for a winter evening run.
LED360 Chest Light 500 lumens and visible from 100m+, it lights up the road ahead and makes sure drivers see you coming. At 161g and USB rechargeable, you'll barely notice it's there.
Thank you to our goodie bag sponsors
Every runner went home with a goodie bag packed with treats from brands we love. A huge thank you to:
- Enertor
- Lifejacket Skin
- Freesoul
- Barebells
- Precision Fuel & Hydration
- Mode Sport by Mo
- Seamagik Skincare
And a special thank you to Manchester Road Runners for leading the way, and to every one of you who came along.
Keep shining through winter
The dark evenings are here until spring. You don't need a group run to feel confident on the roads: the right kit does the job every time you head out. Share your winter runs with #NIGHTMODE and #ShineBrighter, we'd love to see them.
