I'm heading out very soon (like in 20 minutes) for my first actual hike since my knee injury last autumn. I'm scared. I'm scared of injuring my knee further and becoming more discouraged again. I'm scared of hurting my back since it's been really sore for about the last month and is now starting to feel better.
But, I also hope to be encouraged by the lack of those things. I'm encouraged to think that, "Hey! I'm on the trail again!!! My knee isn't gonna stop me from the PCT!!!"
I'm taking a relatively short, relatively flat hike. Should be a breeze. (But I'm afraid that it won't be.)
It's a beautiful day up in the Sierras right now and no chance of precip. It's a good day to go. Pictures to come.
