It's been too cold in the St. Louis area even for ME to walk and I'll usually walk in any weather. But, when the chill factor goes below zero Fahrenheit, I stay inside. The wind, especially, is a killer for me. I've also been working longer hours this week, so it has mostly been inside workouts. Here's some food for thought:
I always thought of the perils of walking being more in the line of icy paths or crazy drivers, but this site offers a larger view of the perils awaiting the hapless pedestrian. Check it out - then go for a walk and forget about most of it. Please.....

While this is really a TV show in Maryland, I believe, the episodes are available on the internet as webcasts. If you can't get those, well, you might survive anyway. I think most of these perils are those more commonly faced by folks walking in heavily trafficked urban areas or maybe on interstates - where you aren't supposed to walk anyway. Let us know what you think.
BTW - this is for bikers as well as pedestrians.

Remember my 100% GUARANTEE. Should you decide to stop walking and resume your old habits, I personally guarantee that you'll get back 100% of your former life - your pain, your lifestyle, your attitude.
