    I went down today...

    i should have known better. I didn't gear up because I was just going a couple of blocks for dinner, when BAM! Down I go. Nursing a seriously skinned knee, and took the side off my pinky toe.

    I know, I know. Things can happen anytime, anywhere, even on the shortest trip. This is last time I go out for a quick trip without gear. I should have known better than to walk to dinner in a dress and heels. ATGATT.

    Heels aren't really a good shoe to start with. Might look sexy and be fast, but a lot can be said for starting in flats and working your way up to heels... some people say "respect the stilleto and you'll be fine," but you need to assess your own situation....

    The streets are way too dangerous for heels.

    Take it to the runway.

    A BOMO runway day is probably coming up!

    Re: I went down today...

    Haha.... the dress did its job, and the small amount of gear I had on is in perfect shape

    I was actually just walking, not even running yet. I guess I should set up some cones in a parking lot to practice before I go out on the street again...

    Have you taken the Heels Safety Foundation (HSF) Beginner Walking Course (BWC) yet? It would provide a good foundation... if you have some experience, consider the Experienced Walker Course for a refresher...
