Short, young, round woman jaywalking across a 4 lane one-way street in downtown St. Louis. She attempts to hurry with her feet hardly clearing the pavement and her knees barely bending. If it were not for the feminine form it would look like an old man’s shuffle in high speed. The curb appears at the end of her rush from traffic. Somehow she manages to make the shuffle leap the six inches up, but this acrobatic maneuver throws her center of gravity off forcing her body forward much too fast. She manages to regain her balance. Her travel slows to a normal gait. Surely she is heading into the office congratulating herself for beating the odds of against downtown traffic once more.
