walking 1:10:00 [2]
Took public transportation to school and on the way home, instead of transferring to a second bus, walked the 4 miles home from the closest stop through the Wissahickon. Weighed my backpack - it was 20 lbs. My new laptop may be fast and all, but it weighs a lot. And nice as my pack is with terrific padding, it doesn't have a waist strap, so a little harder on my shoulders than planned.
This was supposed to be part of a new plan to get in two days of walking each week alternating with running at TNT. Unfortunately, I took a rather nasty fall early on the trail down to the Drive. The weight of the pack was enough that I couldn't regain my balance and I went down hard on my hands and whacked my cheek. Must have wrenched my arm/shoulder and hip as well since I'm pretty sore. No blood, but I already feel stiff and achy.
Pooh. Ah well, it will get my mind off my knees.
