Thinking about evening running and darker nights which will be coming soon.... anyone recommend a good head torch 🔦?

I’m actually a big fan of the Decathlon chest worn light. I had terrible trouble with head lights and went through about 4 (I didn’t buy 4, I was lent a couple as well) before realising that it wasn’t the lights’ fault that I couldn’t see properly, but some sort of disagreement between them and my glasses.

Whatever you go for, brighter doesn’t actually always mean better as if the beam is bright & narrow you can lose a lot of peripheral vision. Not to mention dazzling other people and road users, if you’re not running trail. On that note, many have a red ‘tail’ light, which I think is a must.
