I never thought about taking an emergency blanket along on my winter trail runs. But one cold February morning a friend broke her ankle after slipping on the ice-covered trails. By the time we got help she was hypothemic and shaking like crazy. Now I always carry a foil blank on winter runs. It could be a life saver.
