Yesterday

The walking went well...I did a little over 6 miles and I averaged 4.5 mph. The best part was that I didn't feel a twinge of pain from my left foot.

I did make one mistake though, I went walking without my tape recorder. So here I was, all alone with my thoughts for an hour and a half and no place to unload them.

One memory; as I was heading back towards the car, a group of 4 women were coming towards me, all wearing bright new exercise garb and all perfectly coiffed and made up to the hilt. 2 were talking on cell phones and as they passed, the perfume enveloped me in a cloud that didn't dissipate for at least 100'. Fitness has many guises.

Ah! Life on the trail is filled with surprises at every corner.
