Do you feel safe when out walking?

I came across an article that had advice about staying safe when out on your exercise. The article is written to runners, but it applies to Nordic walkers just as well.

Takeaway: "...we can’t let fear stop us from doing what we love."

Points:
  • "...if you see something, you should say something." For example:
    • "...share that news with your local run group."
    • "Post about it online."
  • "When appropriate, report incidents to law enforcement."
  • Cities can do their part, too, by installing good lighting and emergency call boxes along popular running routes."
Being part of a walking group is another way to stay safe as well has enjoy the company of others.
