Backpack/equipment recs for small migraine-prone people?
Look into packs that are made for children. You are probably about the size my son was for part of our Camino. We just happened upon a kid's backpack at WalMart, of all places, that worked perfectly for him. Now he's getting close to 6 feet, so I doubt he'll be using it again, though! Good luck...- 3walkingtoSantiago

Walking Poles - Bring them they are essential
I've never used them and never intend to even try. I have tendonitis - can't grip anything for long. My hands go numb. I've managed to walk and not fall over (yet). My son had a pole last year that he kept leaving and we kept having to go back for that we left for good in the Madrid airport. The...- 3walkingtoSantiago

please tell me what I can leave behind
Very diplomatic, Tom! My 11-year-old carried a 5k pack last year. We took it for him about 15 minutes a day when he got tired, but other than that, he was fine.- 3walkingtoSantiago

Question for the Ladies....
Hello there from Abu Dhabi as well (there are several of us on this forum - go figure)! Workout pants work for me and my friend. I wish I could find some that are above the knee, but the only ones around seem to be bike shorts with all that padding, so no. I wore a combination of capris...- 3walkingtoSantiago

For the Ladies
Barely There brand panties are reasonably priced and easy to find (I get them at Kohl's when I am in the US). They are microfiber, mostly seamless, and dry very quickly. I've also managed to get reasonable larger sizes yoga-type capri pants at Kohl's and Target. I think they are the best...- 3walkingtoSantiago
