- Time of past OR future Camino
- June 7-July 12, 2012
My wife and I did the Camino in 2012 and started in Pamplona. We will be back on the Camino June 1, and have decided to walk from SJPDP to Roncesvalles in one day (weather permitting). We are pretty avid walkers and have been averaging 6-11 miles every other day. We are now walking with backpacks (using 10% rule...10% of bodyweight). We live near a National Park with lots of hills so we are getting the chance to walk on flat and very hilly roads. We are in our early sixties and in pretty good shape. I have been reading a lot of conversations about NOT walking all the way to Roncesvalles but instead breaking it up and staying overnight in Orrison. I am starting to get a bit freaked out about our decision. What about it? Need some positives here about our decision.
