Excellent article. And I agree wholeheartedly about the afternoon danger rising. I often feel it myself. And try to make the last run a "cool down" instead of a challenge.
And do one run less than I feel like doing.
Most of the time.? ;)

The randomness of this is what is hard to take in. I am sure that all of us have had head bumps that were pretty hard. Whether smacking it on a kitchen cabinet, rough housing it with kids/friends, during sports.

For her to die so quickly from something that probably seemed? like "no big deal" at the time. It could have been any of us.

Makes me feel REALLY foolish going skiing 7 years while on blood thinners.
