Sore Feet

I've been walking around like Fred Sanford again today.

When you walk on the trail, day after day there is usually some regular soreness, but after about a half hour or so, you get into your routine and don't think too much of it. At least you try not to think too much about it. Ibuprofin helps a lot there.

But when you take a day or two off, that is when you really begin to feel it. Whatever defense mechanisms your body has used to stave off pain while hiking shut down and you feel everything. Even on a day 'off' the trail, the pains start to subside after walking around a bit... it's just that first half hour or so getting up when you feel it.

Guess that's my penance for years of slothy and lazy living.
