Day 3 of the Chuseok walk

NOTE: this was a scheduled post that I forgot to remove. I'm still at home and convalescing, and I'm not deleting this post because it already has a comment attached to it.


Up and at 'em! Yesterday's walk was almost 30K; today's is significantly shorter at 26K. There's a weird psychological thing that happens to me between 25K and 30K; I've talked about it before. Up to 25K, my mind categorizes the walk as "short"; from 25 to 30K, though I rapidly start to run out of gas, so that final 5K is a lot harder. It's probably all in my head. Anyway, today's walk leads me to Hanam, and there's one "hillish" hill along the way. Tomorrow's walk, the final day, is another biggie at 35K, but with no real hills. That walk goes from Hanam to Yangpyeong. Weather forecasts have said tomorrow with be sunny and cool, so I'm expecting awesomeness for the final day. A fuller post will appear tonight.

  1. Okay, I'm confused. Your previous post says you decided to cancel today because of foot pain, and this post says you have hit the trail. I just went and checked the times you posted, so it appears you changed your mind and are back on track. I take it that means the pain subsided, which is a good thing.

    I'll look forward to your report and photos!

  2. My mistake. This was a scheduled post that I'd written a couple days ago. I forgot to delete it before it appeared. Since you appended a comment to it, I've decided not to delete the post. I've simply added a note to it.

    The Day 4 post, though, has been deleted.

  3. Ah, okay. Didn't realize some hike posts were "scheduled"--I assumed those would be movie reviews and the like. Okay, here's wishing you a speedy recovery!

  4. Second to what John says. Hope the foot gets better in the next couple of weeks before the River walk.
