A wake-up call

On Saturday I took advantage of the fine weather and the lull in my work schedule to walk up to the Sign of the Kiwi and back, a total distance of 16.2km. It's probably over a year since I've done this climb, and while I enjoyed it on the day I woke up the next morning with very sore legs and buttocks. I managed to make it to the supermarket and back today, but I'm still feeling the effects, which is a reminder that I still have a lot of work to do over the next three weeks before I head off to walk the Koshu Kaido.

Distance walked since last post: 19.2km
Total distance walked since Koshu Kaido training began: 249.3km
Days left until departure: 18
