Thanks to my Road ID, the EMT called my husband

I am a member of the Impala Racing Team in San Francisco. I recently ran the Kaiser Half Marathon race in San Francisco. Unfortunately, I collapsed at the 12 mile marker. Somehow I made my way to the medical tent and was able to tell them I didn't feel well, before I fell unconscious. I don't remember any of this.

When I woke up in the ambulance on the way to the ER, my mind was so cloudy I couldn't compose a response to the paramedic's questions.

Thanks to my Shoe ID, the paramedic was able to call my husband - who had been waiting at the finish line. He was able to provide the EMTs with information they needed for treatment, and meet me at the ER. If I did not have the ID, who knows what could have happened?

The paramedic was so impressed with my Road ID, he talked about getting one himself! I now emphasize to everyone the importance of having ID - even for well-trained athletes like myself.

Update: After 3 days in the hospital and extensive cardiac tests they gave me the good news that my heart is super healthy. They think I had a vaso-vagal response which resulted in low oxygen to the brain. I have fully recovered and I am back running again.

"My identification / medical cards were illegible"
I wish I had a Road ID last summer during a rainy century ride. I was riding along when suddenly I slipped on some train tracks going about 22 mph. By the time I was taken to the nearest hospital, I was soaked, filthy, and in mild shock. I carried my medical cards, and other forms of identification, but they had... - Elizabeth T, West Hartford, CT Continue Reading

"My Road ID got me immediate treatment"
I am a professional duathlete living in the western suburbs of Chicago. I was out on a training ride, going about 20 mph through a neighborhood that is known to be "cyclist friendly". Suddenly a driver – on a cell phone – backed right out of a parking space in front of me. I hit the back of the SUV and proceeded to bounce... - Guy P, Westmont, IL Continue Reading

"I was left lying in the middle of the road"
Long story short, I was out for a Friday ride, when a truck blew through a stop sign, throwing me in the air and destroying my newly built up Cannondale CAAD9 road bike. The driver didn't even stop to check on me. He fled the scene leaving me in the middle of the road. Luckily a passer by came to the scene, and... - Damon A, Indianapolis, IN Continue Reading

"I heard the EMTs access my emergency profile"
Well, that moment we "road bikers" dread, happened to me on Saturday. To make a long story short, my back wheel got caught in a railroad track as I was crossing it at 18 mph, and...you can guess what happened next. After that, I regained awareness only twice- once in the ambulance for a few minutes, then later... - Patrick M, Lockport, NY Continue Reading

"My Road ID spoke for me twice!"
My Road ID spoke for me twice last summer when I was in a bike accident. I was out riding along a local route, when a car turned directly into me. I hit hard, sliding over the trunk and then sliding another 8 feet on gravel. When the emergency responders arrived, I was conscious, but not really 'with it'. They got all my information... - Sara Z, Pottstown, PA Continue Reading
