Hi all,
I fly out to Biarritz on Monday for the start of my camino and I have everything in place and ready to go.
The only problem is that over the last couple of weeks I've been ill with flu and a chest infection and my fitness isn't what it should be. I'm concerned that the first 2 days (orisson booked) over the Pyrenees and into roncevalles is going to be a bit too demanding as my chest is still tight and I can't breath as freely as I should be. Therefore I don't want to be putting myself and anyone who would have to help me at risk if the worst should happen and I got into difficulties.
So my question is this. Is the lower route via valcarlos a lot easier?
Is there a bus service that could take me to roncevalles from SJPDP?
The bus option would be a last resort if I feel I needed it.
It would be a shame to miss the Pyrenees, but they aren't going anywhere and I can always go back another day. I just don't want to risk the entire camino just because I pushed myself too hard on the first couple of days.
Your thoughts and advise will be very welcome.
Steve.
