When Hiking is too Much Like Work

Most of us enjoy hiking. Its great exercise and brings us closer to nature. Every once in a while I go completely bone headed and wander off on a hike without getting ready. It usually happens when I'm with my kids doing something else and decide to go "for a walk". The most recently was at Lake Henshaw where we took off on a hike while I was wearing Ugg boots.
The first 15 minutes were ok, but after that I was ready to go back. If you've never hiked in Ugg boots, let me tell you, it's not much fun. The less than 1 hour hike put me on my butt for almost a week while the blisters healed. Next time I won't be letting the little groms talk me in to going down by the lake unless I've got the right shoes on.

Shoes have always been a major issue for me in fact I had to get a pair of custom shoes made. I do enjoy hiking and find it a very relaxing. Keep on hiking people it is great exercise. I wrote about one of my hikes below. http://www.tastingvictory.net/blog/?p=698
