Walk 98 and 99: Testing the knee

Brunette River, as seen from Lower Hume Park, partway through the first walk

I decided to go for a walk today to see how my right knee would fare.

Good news: It was fine, no issues even as I walked at a very brisk pace at times. This is not to say the knee is better, as it is clearly not, but it does hold some promise for doing a run tomorrow, maybe. Possibly.

I actually split the run in two. When I got to Burnaby Lake, I puttered around for a few minutes, getting a drink at the fountain, and taking some photos. I then headed back on Walk #2. They were very similar.

Unlike yesterday, it was pleasantly warm and sunny. It was nice, and no dogs misbehaved, despite several being off-leash.
