Last Saturday, March 29th just as the sun rose I drove into Matthews Beach in Seattle for this week's 180 minute walk. During the week the area had cold temperatures, rain and snow. I was so worried it would be snowy and very cold for the walk. I went out this week and bought thermal liners and good walking pants. The thought of being cold is just something I can't imagine. Look at these beautiful spring flowers almost hidden in the snow from Wednesday's snowstorm.
The walk was beautiful with views of Lake Washington on the left. I was very conscious of my feet watching to be sure they were not giving me trouble. All seemed good. Three hours later we were finished. I got home though and my feet did hurt. I showered and then soaked my feet in Epsom salt. They hurt on the bone on the inside of each foot just below the big toe. I mean they really hurt.
Sunday TNT (Team in Training) had a party at Jillians Billiards in Seattle. We are at the half way point before the walk. It was fun being there just to have fun and visit with the team. I talked with one of the coaches. He thought my feet were turning in too much. So this week I will see the physical therapist again to hopefully figure out what I need to be able to walk with out pain.
