You are really enjoying it out there, aren't you. How are the knees liking the hiking on those trails?

Walking on flatland is no problem... (Its all calf-work)

Its the steeps that aggravate them a little.

Let me take that further...
Steep inclines with a loaded pack.

HIKING

Ran the Corona De Loma trail @ South mountain
from the trailhead at Warpaint to the first
overlook...

2.8 miles, one-way to the top... (where I stppped)
Total elevation increase 960ft...
About 01:45hr up and 00:42min down

I taped my feet to try and avoid blistering
as this is sort of an aggressive climb toward the peak...

This was a bad idea... I now have what feels like bruising
under my arches, I think caused by the thickness of the tape
-

Oh well, it was good training... I was burned 3/4 of the way up the steep
to the peak... Had to stop and catch my breath several times... (good stuff)

Pack was probably about 50 lbs
It was heavy but my legs felt strong, just the feet were weak today...

No gym today -

Took my bag w/me to work, but after walking
several miles in my dress shoes, my feet were burning
If I could train in slippers that would be nice -
