| Last night I thought there was no way I'd go out today, but then this morning the knees weren't so bad. Orienteering was easier for me today. Took the wrong route choice to #6. Should have taken a more direct route instead of the trail. Crossed a marshy area on a log and quite pleased until I looked down and didn't have my map. Map was in the middle of the wet area, so back on the decaying log, picked it up, turned around, took a couple of steps and then went in rear end first. Really pissed at myself, mostly for wasting all that time and then getting even wetter than if I'd just wadded in. Let it go, but it would have helped to be able to jog some. Glorious day and so happy I was out orienteering. Fun to talk to people afterwards while enjoying the warm sun. So fine. |

| Nice to get out orienteering again. Many smaller mistakes around the controls and one big one. Need to concentrate better and not pleased with a few route choices. The big mistake was on the way to #6 where I stopped one big spur short and then visited many knolls before deciding I might not be in the right place. My body was unprepared for the steep climb to #5 and on the decent from #6 my right knee hurt almost every step. |

| Tried new attachment for the brace. I'm not happy with the fit yet. I'll probably have to trim it, but hate to do that since I can't go back. Also the added pressure made one of the old straps dig into my leg--fun. |

| Per Peter's suggestion hiked on the Pocumtuck Ridge. Nice trail, beautiful day with perfect temps. and great fall colors. Right knee was hurting before I started and continued to bother me. Taped right little toe,but seemed worse than not taping.
No longer used to taking splits on my watch, so missed one at the turnaround but it was about 30:50 (at the orange flagging and no trespassing signs) and also one when I came back under the power line where a group of hikers was waiting for many more (said they were a group from central Ma.). Other split 23:05 to power line. |

| Knee finally felt up to another walk. What's that, two weeks. Hope it doesn't take that long to recover this time. The knees had competition with other complaining body parts, esp. left hip and right foot. A spectacular day out, played bad golf this morning but really enjoyed all the great colors and pleasant temps.
To Gunn and back-- 24.39 up, 22.30 back. |

| Right knee didn't feel that bad yesterday, after being very sore Mon., but today I was still getting sharper pains with the brace on. |
