    How to train for the Camino?

    Good advice above. One exercise helped me a lot was walking up and down stairs, I live in a 13 story condo and I would do 4 sets of up and down. The going down helped as much as going up.

    Hi Dennis, I would be honored for you to put a stone on the Cruz de Ferro. Your thought is very healing for me. One lesson the Camino taught me is everything is temporary, even life, so let's enjoy every moment!

    The Camino taught me.... ACCEPTANCE!

    pilgrim b, I still have some challenges, but feel it's temporary. Acceptance, but still look for other options.

    I took my final Camino step a year-ago today…. Or was it my first step?

    Oh Angelina is my old buddy, we worked at Children's Angel Foundation thrift store, what a sweetheart! I meet a family on the Camino from Phoenix, trying to remember where we were? I have photos of them. They will be in my book. Do you know who they were? It would have been a year ago.

    A year-ago today it was St. James day in Spain; I took my final step of my Camino de Santiago. Little did I know what the next year would bring and where would I be without this experience? Is it true that when you take your final step, a new life-long journey begins with a different view about...
