So I'm really interested in trying a night run. Advice/suggestions?? Do I supply my own lights? Head lamps? Glow sticks?

I generally use a small, lightweight headlamp. If you are running where there is the occasional bear sighting then maybe some bear spray... I have run into bears on more than one occasion while running late in the evening or at night.

Head lamp and reflectors is the best advice. I wouldn't run with head phones on either while running in the dark. I think you would want to be able to hear if there are any big animals walking around you.
