As of this writing my body is holding up pretty well after 450 miles on the trail. On the first few days after leaving Campo CA I developed blisters on the outside of each heel. Although they are still there I no longer feel them. Then after a couple of weeks (actually upon heading into Big Bear City) I developed another one on the inside of my left heel. This too I don’t feel. My right ankle is a bit sensitive, which has carried over from my preparation hiking in and around Austin. However it hasn’t hurt enough to make me limp, but sometimes after I stop for the day I catch it just right and it hurts. My knees are good. My hips are good. As for the rest of me. My core is fine – no tummy problems. And my brain is still crazy for thinking I might do this.<\/p>\n
