Went to see a physio and she confirmed that I do indeed have a shin splint in my left leg. I’m going to have to be real careful about how and when I proceed with the walk as it could lead to permanent damage if I keep aggravating it.
I explored the option of biking from Pipiriki to Wanganui but the mail van is booked out till Thursday next week. The DOC track to the Bridge to Nowhere is definitely closed until sometime next week. So I guess I’ll be carrying on south in a day or two as walking or biking from Ohakune to Wanganui is not an option this week either.
