I use a disposable over the ear mask, keeps out pollen, a occasional bug, regulates the cold intake, and bonus helps with the smell from the sprinklers. I am confused how how a mask would be for safety reason. It does not have reflective properties.

I run about 5 plus miles, rain or shine, so if you want to join and tell me the water does not smell let me know.
But then again I have a heighten sense of smell. If you don’t keep up I wait for no one. Have a 3 day 60miles coming up this summer so just doing tune up short runs until July then start pushing to 20 miles.
