First walk in over a week after injuring the big toe on my left foot. I initially thought it was broken but it was a severe sprain. Still some discomfort but doing much better. Such is my life.

Day189 080217

Went out alone before lunch. While only a few degrees less than yesterday it felt much more tolerable. My right knee was doing well so I decided to take the steep path up the hill. Both calves cried like they were being punished but all was well once reached the top of the ridge. No problems on the downhill either.

Day188 080117

Made time to go out for a mid afternoon walk. Walking buddy bailed at the last second and as I walked thought maybe I should have also. The afternoon sun felt especially oppressive and I felt really sluggish for most of the first half. One plus is my right knee felt fine.
