Oravasaari
Helsinki, Finland
- Time of past OR future Camino
- Via de la Plata March 2023
Fourth camino coming up and still undecided about which camino to tackle next but have also become a bit of a runner recently. Has anyone had experience of running parts of caminos?
I've reduced my essentials right down to almost nothing based on 3 caminos worth or experience, so no problem running with tiny runners' pack on my back etc. So maybe have option to run last 5, 10km (or a bit more depending on fitness) of non-mountainous section every otherday. i.e walk 20, run 5 or 10km, then walk 30 next day, repeat.
Will depend on time of year though (has to be early spring or late autumn due to temps etc.)
Has anyone attempted this? Done it? Drawbacks? Issues? Equipment? Rest days?
