I'm actually fairly busy this weekend. I'm doing some work at home for the company, but I'm also making time for a riverside stroll and doing at least one quasi-Thai cooking project (messy result to be displayed later this evening).

Still, it was enough to learn that, yes, my right foot still hurts when walking over 15K steps, but no, nothing re-broke. I should have taken my ibuprofen before I began walking, but once I had started, commitment bias took over, so I shrugged and kept on walking.
