Good one!! Thanks!!!!I don't suffer from knee problems either climbing or descending (so far, touch wood) but I came across this article and thought you might find it interesting.

Yes SY - a dram of good whiskey (12-15 year old single malt!?) would work wonders, improving (lessening?) the knee pain, but only at the end of the day's walking?!Zig-zagging downhill also helps, if the path is wide enough. BTW, love this typo/autocorrect in it
"Aside from the occasional dream of whiskey to dull the pain, ..." Great article, thanks for posting it and Buen Camino, SY
It is a matter of changing the pain zone ! Drink so much boose that you forget the pain in your knees but feel a headache all the timeYes SY - a dram of good whiskey (12-15 year old single malt!?) would work wonders, improving (lessening?) the knee pain, but only at the end of the day's walking?!
coming right up - but only at the end of the day!Can I have Bailey s and milk with my knees please
In East Africa, in Kiswahili, the polite answer to many questions, like that in the subject line, is bado meaning 'not yet', rather than a stark 'no'. For example you might ask an 80 year old woman if she had children and she would say bado.I don't suffer from knee problems either climbing or descending (so far, touch wood) but I came across this article and thought you might find it interesting.

May (y)our dreams come true!Or perhaps it just helps to dream of the whiskey (Jura Single Malt anyone?) during the walk, positive thoughts, smiles of anticipation etc. might also help ;-) Buen Camino and Slainte! SY
