March 24th

We walked 15.7 miles today, feels like twice that. It was a milestone for me. In training, the most I walked was 14 miles. At that point, I developed severe shin splints. Very painful. So I had to scale back on my training and never did 14 miles again. In fact, the most I did after that was 12 miles, but the shin splints were gone. We walked through Parris, California. Nice town, very suburban. Today I found agenuine pearl bracelet, well maybe it was a genuine plastic pearl bracelet; another socket, metric this time; and a penny. Tomorrow we move to Lake Parris State Park. I put 15.7 miles on my New Balance 1123s. Stay tuned.
