    Walking speed

    To my surprise, I paid absolutely no attention to my pace while I was on the Camino. I pushed hard during training and was conscious of pace with every walk. On the Camino, the pace was what is was. Typically dictated more by mood than by physical feelings. It varied greatly during the day...

    OpenStreetMap - how reliable?

    I haven't used OpenStreetMaps directly, but I have used then as from with the GPS app (MotionX) on my iPhone. I did the Camino del Norte in October and used MotionX as a backup if I got off course. MotionX's maps are OpenStreetMap (streets) and OpenCycleMaps (terrain). I also had uploaded a...
