Tune Yourself Up For Winter Walking
Road conditions looked good and a driver had his foot deep into the accelerator pedal as he tried to eat up the miles on a marathon winter trip home.
At one point his car seemed to be wandering in its lane. Thinking one of the tires was low, the driver pulled over and promptly fell onto his backside as he left his vehicle. The highway was a sheet of black ice. With white knuckles, he started out again, watching the bleak winter landscape roll past at half his former speed.
This story is important because it shows the necessity of paying attention not only to winter driving conditions, but also to equally treacherous walking conditions. You may not be much for walking, but even a short winter walk across a parking lot into a building can injure more than your pride.
