Hiking Trip

I'm proud of myself for that title, haha ; read on to find out why.
So, Tony and I went hiking last Saturday and it was mostly good. We saw some deer, went around a pond full of birds, and were getting a good cross-training workout. There were a couple of really good places to look out over the valley and it was a beautiful day. I chose the park that we went to because it is supposed to be a good place to start and it was. The trail we went on was moderately difficult until the way down at the end. My knee had been hurting for awhile but I was trying to just push through it. Sure enough, I had just finished telling Tony that I have good balance when my knee gave out on me and I ate it hard! My legs are bruised and scrapped up, and my hands too. Thankfully, we were close to the end and I was able to hold it together long enough to realize how funny the whole thing was. When we got home I iced my knee for a long time and have done so every day since and now my knee feels better than it did before we went hiking. We are planning to go again later this week as one of our "runs" but we want to go to a different park this time since there is about 30 places to go around here.
And that's the story of my hiking trip.
