Decided to take a break from running today (planning a long Saturday run) and went for a "hike" with MR. There wasn't a lot of elevation change, but it was full of mud, sand, and tree roots. We took the lakeview trail to see the dam. The dam wasn't really what I thought it was going to be, but the views of the cypress trees growing along the shore with Spanish moss hanging off the branches was beautiful. At the end of the hike, there was a boardwalk that connected the trail to the parking lot. I don't know how or why, but as I was walking back to the car on the even, dry boardwalk, I felt a painful jolt in my knee. My good knee. Stupid. I put a light weight knee brace on it and iced it when I got home. 6 miles of gnarly roots, and I get hurt on the safe part? What's up with that?
