Woke this morning with a sore knee - bugger!
On the upside there was no rain so I decided to capitalise on the weather and take Archie out for a lovely long walk to the beach and play ball on the helipad! 2 hours and 7km later I've developed a limp! I decided to see how things went once I got home and "rested" for a bit. After a couple of hours of jobs around the house and a quick lunch it was time for Archie's second walk of the day.
As the sun was still shining I decided to do another long walk, this time over the hills - that'll test the knee! It was lovely on top of the hills apart from the gale force winds across the top. Luckily I was on my own because conversation would have been useless! We walked 8k in 2 hours. I think the difference in time and distance between this morning and this afternoon has to do with ball playing and stopping to chat with other dog walkers and a friend I hadn't seen for a while this morning.
So today Archie and I have walked a total of 15km and been out for nearly 4 hours. Oh and the knee - sore but no worse than it was when I woke up so hopefully with reduced dog walking tomorrow (I'm back to work) I will be able to go for a run.
