    Thank you for that info. I have been debating pushing up my start date to very tail end of September/ First week of Oct. as I have some flexibility but would need to rearrange some logistics - Sounds like you would endorse that idea? I planned for later in the season to get the cooler fall...

    Plantar fasciitis.

    I feel your pain!! I have been dealing with PF for a while and like everyone else do say the MDs/Physios know best - however there is a lot of conflicting information on how to treat even within the medical community - so definitely can be hard to sort it all out - but these are the things that...

    Thanks so much for your response. I really enjoy cold weather and have good gear for it (despite living in south Florida)- so am really looking forward to it for that and so many other reasons. I also wanted to have the more “days of old” experience with perhaps less people and definitely do not...

    Thank you for the well wishes - I am really looking forward to enjoying the weather (all of of it- whatever it brings!) and hopefully little less crowding but still having some company- hopefully I have hit the mark on timing. I considered a winter Camino but figured I would save that for a...
