Chlorine withdrawal is awful for chlorine addicts.
Been he two weeks. Back on the 24th.
Walked around West Lake in Hangzhou today. About 9 miles total for the day.
Definitely going to get a good long swim in the day before Thanksgiving.

    Was wondering where you'd disappeared to Gutzy!
    Good to hear from you!

    Oh Gutzy. Ugh... How are your feet? If memory serves, long hikes had been a bit painful. Hopefully you'll get a loooong and awesome swim in on the day before Thanksgiving!

    I finally figured it that double socks was a problem, not a solution.
    And i don't walk every day. Allowing recovery time. Allowing joint inflammation to pass.
    So today i have no soreness after walking that distance at all.
    And no blisters at all this trip.
    learning to adapt and moderate. I'll just have to hit the pool hard when i get back to make up for it.
    And Five Ten approach shoes are great for walking. Very stiff sole keeps toe flex to a minimum.

    Journey home begins in less than 3 hours.
    Taxi to the bus station followed by a 3 hour bus ride to Shanghai. Hang out in the terminal until boarding at 5. Dallas next where I'll have dinner with my wife's nephew between flights. Arrive in Greensboro at 11:20 PM EST. 26 hour journey. Fun.
    Soon I'll be feeding by Chlorine addiction again.
