Keep on walking....

Following my unplanned Sunday outing, my joints were pretty hot and sore, knees especially, hips somewhat, and my foot pain was near the high end of its normal range. As I sometimes say, I can have this pain without doing anything....and I use that as justification both for doing, and not doing certain things - cunning eh?

So for a couple of days I'm moving noticeably awkwardly but by today, Wednesday, the joints are less painful, though there's some new muscle aches, but anyone would expect that. So a walk to the supermarket and back seems like a reasonable idea. Bit of a slow uncomfortable plod though!

After the weekend I researched the poles and the supports. Managed to find a pair of longer poles on eBay for £10.50 and decided on a pair of knee supports - they arrived today - impressive looking `items that are probably intended for weightlifters or something!
