First day in weeks that I have felt good enough to venture out for a hike. I have written throughout the summer about the debilitating nature of my plantar fasciitis and how it dramatically curbed my activities this summer. After months of doctors visits, inserts, acupuncture and cupping it is finally feeling better and it is wonderful to walk without pain. Today is my first trip to test my feet on steeper slickrock, I have no goal for today, but wanted to wander in Zion’s backcountry as long as possible.
