I'm 62 and hike a lot. I sometimes have knee pain and/or back pain, and I've been to my primary doctor as well as an orthopedic specialist. BOTH of them recommend I take 800 mg of ibuprofen one hour before exercise. So how do you know who to believe?
BTW, I'm talking about the book she wrote with Johnnie Walker which came out in April 2018. And yes, I googled it under "Stacey Wittig books about Camino de Santiago" and it came right up. It is a Wise Pilgrim book available on the Confraternity of St. James website.
My online receipt says Confraternity of St. James" in the UK was the seller. I haven't received it yet. I think I googled it, but I'll double check for you.
I hike the Grand Canyon often and always use bicycle rider gloves (no fingers) with my Black Diamond hiking poles because I get blisters otherwise. I also appreciate the sun protection.
