Today, due to a flat tire, I only had 20 minutes to complete a 35 minute walk to catch my train. I ended up sprinting up the snow-covered frozen hill in heels, luggage in hand, only to arrive 1 minute in time, and to find out that the train had been cancelled. Next train in 1 hour. FML

Actually, I'm 5 foot 1, so that explains the heels, and my brother was supposed to drive me, which is why I set out later in the first place.

The bad news is that you don't have a spare tire for your car. The good news is that running in the snow with luggage means you don't have a spare tire around your waist.

She had a car before though, she probably didn't plan on walking more than a few feet to get on and off the train.

Don't lots of women also carry five different shoes in their cars for every occasion?

Bummer I've had to run in the snow up a hill also... I was carrying a bagel and slipped and landed on my ass! Worst experience ever and it didn't help that my roommate at the time was laughing her ass off at me lol I couldn't do anything but laugh it off :)

Tell me about this. Where I live the trains are simply dreadful. In the mornings hundreds of passengers get out of bed early, and walk 15mins+ to the station, in the cold and frost - only to find our trains been cancelled, because the company couldn't be arsed about giving us our train. Those train folk are LAZY LAZY LAZY :(

YDI. 1. Any professional that has to walk a significant distance to get to their job, or wherever you needed to be, knows you wear your walking shoes and keep your good shoes in your bag until you get there; that way you don't ruin your feet or your shoes during the hike. 2. It's called a phone. You could have called the station to ensure your train was on time. If the train was late and you had an appointment to keep, a taxi, taking the time to change your flat, or calling a friend for a ride, would have been advisable.

Where I am from, the trains are rarely on time or cancelled randomly and, no, the phone or Internet service does not update unless it was planned aged of time. Also, taxis can take over an hour to even come get you at the best of times.

Am I the only one curious about the total abandonment of the car? I mean, here if someone just left their car on the road and went off it would make them look very suspicious. Even more so a woman running as if the hounds of hell were at her heels and she is carrying a case.
