NEW: LightBelt - The Best Headlamp Alternative
/LightBelt is new company we are excited to bring in to Runners Athletic Company. With a company connection to Midland, MI - we are one of the first stores in the USA to carry their products!
Why a light belt? We carry some great headlamps in our store, but all headlamps have a few drawbacks.
Getting dizzy when it rains or snows due to the light reflecting off the droplets
Tunnel Vision
Blinding your running buddies when you talk and look at each other
Light “bouncing” up and down
Disposable batteries (not environmentally friendly!)
Heavy head and neck strain
If you have ever had any of these issues - we recommend stopping in and checking out LightBelt. Some of the benefits include:
BRIGHT LED Lights - up to 700 lumens
3350 mAh rechargeable battery (it can be replaced if ever needed, too) - up to 60 hours (6 hours HIGH)
Super simple, fast, secure buckle (check it out here)
Creates more shadows for better seeing uneven terrain and obstacles

Reflective Mirrored Lens vs. Silver Lens: It is a personal preference.
Reflective Mirrored lens shines a brighter “spot” in the distance. In addition, it creates "bright spots" or circle "donut" (bright spot with slightly darker circle around it) light dispersion. If you've used a flashlight - you'll know what we mean.
Silver lens provides even light dispersion. It also provides brighter wide-angle light dispersion that is consistent towards the peripheral vision.
