    Just returned from Camino Frances!

    Feeling a bit of panic set in

    I'm leaving Sept 3rd from San Francisco. I'm also a bit nervous, but it's tempered by the excitement of the adventure. I haven't really prepared for this trip. I have only walked a couple of miles a week. However, I bike about 100 miles a week, so I think I'll be okay. I think you'll be fine if...
