    Camino Ninja

    Just came back from using it on Camino Ingles/Camino Finisterre and worked fine. I tend to use the map feature to check if I've wandered off route, and find the interim distances between cafes etc useful when deciding if/when to give in to the urge to stop as soon as a cafe appears on the way!

    Camino by Coach

    Camino by Coach

    To paraphrase Stephen King's musings on being an author; there is a big difference between wanting to write a book, and wanting to say you have written a book. I can see similarities with Camino's . . .

    Camino by Coach

    Just finished walking the Camino Ingles/Camino Finisterre ( now languishing in the Seminario Menor in Santiago) I witnessed something a few days ago that I simply have to share. Walking with two friends in the middle of the Spanish countryside, we came upon a table with fruits/ coffee/ water etc...

    Medication woes

    I take beta blockers, asprin, antacids amiodarone, ramipril (stops me going into cardiac arrest again) and I also 'carry' a defibrillator/pacemaker implant in case the previous stuff doesn't work! Always somebody worse off though . . right? 🙃

    Roads versus Trails

    Any route that's covered by the Brierley guides has a breakdown of what's underfoot for each stage. i.e. natural pathway/minor road/major road.

    Definition of a Pilgrim 🤣

    You can only claim an answer is easy if someone actually asked a question. . my post was simply a humorous quote. Let's not get into the tourist/pilgrim backbiting . . .

    Definition of a Pilgrim 🤣

    Probably need some fancy algorithm that takes into account if you had checked luggage,whether you drank alcohol, if you used the bathroom, and the maximum altitude you reached etc etc You also need to get your credencial stamped by the flight crew . . .

    Definition of a Pilgrim 🤣

    I'm always a little apprehensive about posting anything approaching humour on this Forum, for fear of upsetting someone. But here goes . . . I heard this a few years ago, and it made me smile.

    Best app to accurately record distances, elevation and descent per day

    You're right, generally speaking. For me personally though, I have to make sure my heart rate doesn't go too high, having somehow managed to survive 2 (count'em!) cardiac arrests. I sometimes push a bit hard up hills when adrenalin overrides common sense. Despite having an all-singing/all-...
