Hey all, I’ve been very much looking for to going to Japan for 10 days, flying out next Friday, but then I stupidly sprained my ankle pretty badly. It happened on Sept 30, which means I’ve had nearly two weeks to recover so far and another week to go.
I’ve healed mostly okay so far – it took a couple days before I could walk again, but I’ve been walking around in a brace pretty okay (slight limp) for the past week, and have walked 5,000-7,000 steps each day without too much trouble. I’m gunna try to work up to 10k steps a day over the weekend and keep it going throughout the week.
My only issue is, I know how much walking is typically done in Japan. I’m basically spending 5 days in Tokyo, then up to Hakone for a night, then 3 days in Kyoto and back to Tokyo. I’m not going to do DisneySea or Disneyworld with all the walking, and no serious hikes. Would it be realistic to try to keep to around 10,000 steps per day and still explore the city, travel around, etc? I would be devastated if I had to cancel my trip at this point (especially for something so dumb), but I don’t want to go and not enjoy it. Any insight would be much appreciated!
