    CamiNO

    Thanks Kazrobbo ... avoiding Covid and waiting for the Vaccine(s) then CaminoGO is my approach. BTW "Red66" ... I have worn out my Keen boots in the last 10 months of extended training (~860 Km on mostly hard surfaces). I will buy the same Keen Boot in January 2021 for a ~planned Sept21 Camino 🤞
