    Are you thinking to walk the Camino (the way of the Saint James) again?

    I love these roads. They're indescribable. I started on the Frances in 2013. I've walked 16 different times since on a whole myriad of different routes. My life has become manifold richer as a result. I think about the Camino everyday and thank God it exists.

    Hi Camino family. Hope all well? It's getting to that time of year again. I'm planning to walk from St Jean to Pamplona then continue biking from Pamplona. Do you know of a good bike store which will allow me to hire a bike then pick it up at a designated spot along the Camino? Chris Xx

    Avoiding the breakfast trap?

    I practise intermittent fasting so I start eating every day at 12 noon and try to have my last meal around 8pm so I put 20kms under the belt before eating...maybe a black coffee para llevar!!! Keeps it nice and easy in the morning and allows me to shed that 'winter coat' a bit quicker ;-)
