After walking white in 90 minutes with Oriana, I decided to try walking it fast. That was pretty much okay after 10 minutes, so I tried jogging it mostly on the 2nd half. During that half the knee pain slowly appeared, and was getting mildly sore by the end. Not terrible, but the same-old pain that normally only gets worse. I may try this again next week, after a week of walking/biking only. Or something like that.

Walking White with Oriana and French Creek East. She actually did the whole White course, with me helping. She decided most of the ways to go - basically looking for the right trail on the map & ground after I told her where we were on the map.
Mostly her interests wander a bunch, which slows us down because moving forward slips out of focus, but it is kinda interesting what she does focus on. E.g. we saw lots of different fungi, including a dead tree with 'climbing wall' shaped fungi, well spaced as if you could almost climb right up it. And she liked the obsidian pieces we found on the trail. I think that's what it is... And crossing the creeks w/o getting wet was pretty fun (although one of her feet went in a bit once.)
