exercise hazards

On Tuesday, a man walked into an LA Fitness outside of Pittsburgh and opened fire. He killed 3 women and injured 9 others before turning his gun on himself.  Click here for the story

Today, a woman was jogging in a park in Philadelphia when a 30-foot tree branch fell and killed her. Click here for the story

My sympathy goes out to all of the victims -- how awful to get out there and exercise, trying to do something healthy for yourself, only to get killed in the process.  I am great at making excuses to avoid exercising, but even I have never put it off because I was afraid it might kill me. Maybe a home gym is the way to go.
