I want to be invincible again

Keywords: aging , falling , hiking

I have friends who have stopped going for walks in winter, afraid of slipping on icy sidewalks. I’ve given up ice skating, and other friends have given up skiing. But how do we balance our need for exercise and getting outside with being safe? I was talking to a friend about this, and we agreed you need to find a balance: be more careful and more aware but don’t let the fear stop you from doing things you love. It’s a hard balance to find, but one that’s becoming increasingly necessary as we gingerly step into a new phase of aging.

Several years ago, while Randy Thoreson was working for the National Park Service, he began talking with the Division Chief for Conservation and Outdoor Recreation. “I enjoy doing all of this work with youth,” said Thoreson, “but I think we’re missing a sector of the population. The outdoors isn’t just for kids, you know.”
