Wildwasser Guardian Light
Kayaks are hard enough for oblivious power boaters and Sea-Doo enthusiasts to notice in broad daylight—make sure you're visible to them when the sun sets or fog rolls in with the Wildwasser Guardian Light. The Guardian features an installed battery, snap clip for PFDs, waterproof construction up to 18-feet, and a simple twist for powering off and on.
$14.95 
Safety Gear
Little in size, but seriously can be seen for over a mile. This little light of mine does shine, shine, shine. I use it on my sea kayaks when the weather turns or on my road bike if I don't make it home before the sun goes down. Either way, I take them with me to keep me safe so others who may or may not see "me" but they definitely see the light.

Training Tips
As a long distance runner, a gradual increase in distance each week will allow you to build a solid areobic base. Distance increase should be no more than 10% of the previous week's distance.
When buying a new pair of running shoes, bring your old ones with you. You will get a better fit if you know if you supinate or pronate.
Heart monitors are useful for knowing when you are in the right zone for your training efforts. If you understand what your maximum heart rate is, you can set up your monitor to beep at you when you exceed the high or low range of your heart rate for the type of workout you are doing.
Cross training gives your body a chance to recover while still exercising. If yesterday has a hard run day up and down hills, then today's bicycle ride gives your aching knees a well deserved break.
