[quote="MaxPower"]When I go running, I just take house keys and wear a RoadID (similar to a medicalert bracelet, I have the soft ankle-strap one, just has my personal info and emergency contacts). Much better than dragging all that other junk around.[/quote]

In outdoor sporting occasions I only carry car key or home keys leaving everything else into car (hidden, not in the view through windows) or home. Although I usually carry huge amout of keys (my home, shed, bicycle lock, parents home, office) I do have another set of only home keys for such occasions. I don't have any fancy key rings, and my car key is attached to others with a carabin and I can leave the rest of the set into car. When I used to jog starting right from my door I just kept keys in my palm and had a string around wrist for safety. Now I should sew a string into pocket of my sporting pants to attach car or sports club locker key to it. <br /> <br />A common wallet is stupid huge, if you probably will not go shopping then you only need one or few cards (ID, driver licence, credit card) and one or two money bills. Keep the cards together in something that itself does not take up room. Compared to this a mobile phone is much more difficult to place safely while jogging. <br /> <br />Also take into account the criminality level of the place you are in. Some sports clubs locker can be safe enouch to leave your wallet and phone, others certainly are not.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Venger</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="http://cdn.wrongplanet.net/modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon May 14, 2012 9:32 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Wear your workout clothes to and from the gym, and take a shower when you get home if you did cardio.

Anyways, when you go running or exercise, what do you do with all of your stuff, like your keys/wallet? At the gym I used to go to they used to have designated places you could store everything, but at my new one they don't so I've just been putting everything on the floor next to me which I really don't like to do. If I keep everything in my pockets then it jostles around so much when I run and such that it's really annoying lol. And if I go running outside, I never bring anything with me since I don't know where to carry it lol.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
