    Trail runners on the Norte

    When It Rains It Pours?

    A good poncho, a smile and a song in your heart. It is the Camino rain, sun, wind and snow all part of the fun. My only guidance is not to worry about it just go with No Expectations and you will have no disappointments.

    Has anyone walked with compression stockings

    I have always taken a pair of sports compression tights as they are good for that first week, and help at night. They also double as warmers on the odd cold day, I used them under my shorts even during my March walk in the snow, they also dry quickly.
