Thank you so much for your continued support and encouragement. It was definitely a huge factor in making the decision to do it!! Well, I am leaving in two days and I can't believe it. I wish I had more preparation and training. I ended up aggravating an old knee injury while on a practice walk and been going to a physiotherapist and doing exercises. Generally I was told to only walk short distances until I leave my trip to avoid any further injury. I'm really praying that my knee will be okay and that having walking poles will help. I just have to take it day by day and go at my own pace and hope I will be able to finish but know that it isn't a race and that it is my camino, however it ends up.
I am both excited and nervous at the same time! I've done so much research and preparation and otherwise I feel ready. I have all my gear and again am so thankful for this forum as I read so many threads to help me prepare and gain knowledge.
I learned of the incident in Barcelona today and it really shocked and upset me and I am so sorry for those that were affected. I don't want to put a damper on my excitement and preparations though as I am about to leave and need to try to stay positive and pray for the best.
Thank you again everyone. I hope I will be able to post an update while on the Way.
