Sunday -- Tillamook Head, 6.84 mi.

Tillamook Head -- 6.84 miles. It's still a mud hole, seriously muddy. The entire walk gets reduced to navigating around the muck stretches. Mud up to the knees on the inseams of the pants. I slipped a lot on the mud/clay surface. Fell once and bent my ski-walking pole.

1.5. litre protein drink: skim, yogurt, wheat germ, protein powder, banana, blueberries, fruit mix. Sardines, apple slices.

We were beat at the end of the walk. I suspect maybe it's because I haven't been walking and instead have been cycling. Maybe we're just out of shape for the specifics of walking?

That said, the climbing was much less daunting yesterday than the same hike in Feb.

Stiff, really stiff post walking. Stiff that evening, next morning. sore toes/feet. The LaCrosse boots are waterproof and solid for hiking muddy, but heavy and stiff. They're intended for mountaineering on glaciers. Some walking around helps w/ the recovery, stiffness. Over-did, and ate a lot after -- characteristic of over-did.

218.5 lbs, 25% -- we seem stuck here.
