I think you will find that this is a fairly common problem for PWP.
The only solution I have found is to slow down even more than
the PD insists I do, and concentrate on my walking, consciously
thinking 'heel-toe, heel-toe. Paradoxically dispite slowing down
I seem to end up walking faster as my stride lengthens.
On a lighter note, do you think Lennon and McCartney had us
in mind when they wrote:
Day tripper, one way ticket, yeh.
It took me so long to find out.
I found out!!!!!!!
