      isawtman replied to the thread 25 km per day?.
      I was 64 years old in Sept of 2022 when I did the 500 mile Camino Frances in 30 days. So, I averaged around 16 miles a day. I didn't take any rest days but I had a couple days where I only hiked 9 miles for various reasons. One time is was...

      isawtman replied to the thread Madrid City Walks.
      Even if you are not into museums, I would still go to the Museo Renia Sofia to see Picasso's Guernica Painting. It is a very important anti-war painting that is as relevant today as when Picasso painted it. It is really big, too. It is 11 feet...

      isawtman replied to the thread Two backpacks?.
      Are you even sure you can have your backpack transported on the Camino Dos Faros. It is a relatively unknown Camino. I would just make sure my regular backpack is light enough that I can carry it all the way. You really don't need much.

      I don't have any Big Issues with the last 100 km either, but it seems to be a concern to a lot of people. All the camino forums and facebook pages I visit have had posts about it.

      Okay, if there is less people hiking a certain route, there are less people going to the bathroom on a certain route. As far as open churches and price of luggage transfer, that's not a major concern to many pilgrims.

      I don't fail to understand anything. I do admit that it was a fairly extreme suggestion. But they have made some camino altering rules in the past. For instance, at one point you could hike the Camino however you wanted and then they established...

      Having 11 variants will not fix the problems in the last 100 km because none of those variants are in the last 100 km. I suppose they could just ban people who are doing only 100 km from doing the Frances and make them start at one of those...

      isawtman replied to the thread The Idea of Camino.
      William, did you walk today? Also, when I did the camino I was afraid I was going to have knee problems. I have had a sore knee on some occasions walking here at home. So, I started doing exercises to strengthen the muscles around my knees. It...
