Keep on throat punching dude. Glad you got this big giant one in. I have been hiking a fair bit myself this week (not after a medical situation throat punching) and it's amazed me how out of the way I have gotten from it. Must be all that COVID lockdown nonsense.
There's something deeply satisfying about putting one foot in front of the other and moving through natural places right? I was hiking so much mid-late last year and for it to fall off a cliff (not literally) so suddenly took its toll. But now...I'm back! It's amazing what a well placed throat punch can achieve. 😉
Keep hiking mate, you'll thank yourself for it. Well, maybe not thank per se, but you know what I mean.
It truly is. The sights and the feeling of being out and free are just sublime. Even the weather makes you feel great. Although it was sunny we got caught in a rainy squall for ten minutes or so yesterday and it just made us buzz!
Your throat punching is second to none it seems! :0)
Hiking in the rain is legit...If it's not too cold. 🤪
