Poles it is then....

Heya!
The usual stuff has been happening; training is going well, fundraising has slowed to a trickle but have taken steps to rectify that - watch this space.
I'm blogging today coz I have just spent the last hour or so tearing up and down Kilvey hill and feeling all fit and stuff. Anyway, coming back down the 2nd time, on a particularly muddy yet rocky part of the hill when my footing just goes and I end up falling over scraping my knee. No skirts in work for me for a while then. I'm just glad the weather is crap! I digress - the reason I'm telling you this is not because it's funny that I fell over, it's because of what I was thinking about when I fell: Walking poles. And whether I should purchase some for Great Wall trekkin'. I kid you not, I was weighing up the pros and cons of walking poles. I think it's safe to say that my stingy knee has made up my mind for me; I'm going shopping.
