The boot

I had an appointment with an orthopedic specialist this afternoon & after doing lots of poking, prodding, twisting, & pushing plus an ultrasound - she couldn't find anything obviously wrong with my foot!  Because she couldn't find any real tender spots on my foot, she doesn't think it's a stress fracture.  She wants me to "rest" my foot for 1 to 2 weeks & see if there's any improvement (ie the boot).  I have another appointment in a couple weeks & if there's no improvement she may want to do an MRI to get a better look @ the tendons & bones.
So, it looks like the rest of the PCT hike is postponed.
