: at 7:00 (an hour later than we
: wanted too) and Summited by 3:00. I
: have a sore hipflexor that was
: making it hard to move quick.
: The weird part is all three of us
: started to have horrible knee pain
: between High Creek and Halfway, by
: the time we got to Vivian, we were
: at a crawling pace maybe .5MPH if we
: were lucky. I know its a hard hike,
: I'm not in the best of shape but I
: play Ice Hockey every week and skate
: practice as well, I ride my bike
: often and my friend plays soccer.
: Non of us are overweight. We were
: miserable coming down, I've never
: seen anything like it. We saw
: people jogging up and down, but we
: felt like we were gonna die! Anyone
: else ever had that horrible knee
: pain? Its been 3 days and I still
: can't walk down my stairs.
