I found this on the news today: German mountaineer dies of cardiac arrest while climbing Alaska's Mount McKinley.
I don't know if any of this forum's users are also mountaineers, and granted it's Denali. Nonetheless, I think this incident does highlight the fact that we need to be sure if our bodies can take it before we challenge ourselves into doing a potentially strenuous outdoor activity. Sometimes, our enthusiasm just gets the better of us.
Your thoughts? |
