Seniors who walk briskly may be able to delay death, essentially outrunning the Grim Reaper, a new study suggests.
Australian researchers with a wry sense of humor say they have calculated the average walking speed of the specter of death -- and it’s about 2 miles per hour.
Walk faster than that and you may outrun the Grim Reaper, too, they argue in a new study published in the latest issue of the British Medical Journal.
