Skiing Safer Than Jogging, Says Cardiologist
Dr. Merritt H. Stiles, former U S Ski Association president, told about 300 orthopaedic surgeons at a skiing safety conference that skiing is safer for the heart than jogging due to lower energy demand and frequent rest. He noted skiers train seasonally and often start from inactivity. He added most people can do at least cross country skiing if they can walk.
