weekend, is it ok? I broke my collar bone almost 4 weeks ago and this weekend my boyfriend and I were going to go for a hike in the mountains. It is about 5 miles round trip. I do get sore from walking but I am sick of not being able to get any type of exercise. Do you think that I will be able to handle it? I am still on Vicodin for the pain and the doctor said I am healing a little slow.
 
If you do not carry a loaded backpack it should be fine assuming you do not fall while hiking...
 
I had a broken collar bone once and it didn't stop me from doing anything, just make sure that you do not try to do too much with your arms, and make sure that your BF help you out the whole way.
