Found My Sea Legs: Me and Fe did 3 and 3
September 15, 2009 | |
So, I told my PT a couple of weeks ago that as soon as I could walk a mile at a fairly good clip, without any pain and mucho swelling, I’d feel like I was 85-90% recovered. We all know it’s that last 10% that’s the pain in the kicker.
Well, this weekend, I inadvertently did 5 miles more than that! Fe and I took a hike loop that took us from inland, to the coast, along the beach (yay - beach walking!), then back up the hillside and around. It was awesome. Here’s Fe peeking for more gophers or something under the tree. He is scary close to the cliff edge- do they have no perception of falling over? I tell ya:

This 3-miler went so well that I decided to do another hike the next day (Sunday). No pics from that hike, but a damn fine accomplishment nonetheless!

I am sooo jealous.
Sounds great. I played hooky yesterday with my wife and headed to the Maine coast for a day on the beach. I walked a mile or two in the sand and finished off a pair of lobsters for dinner to boot. Most of last weekend was spent at Fenway Park with a lot of walking the streets of Bahston. Some swelling after a long day but zero pain and no limping(and the Sox swept the Rays).
