I met a second time Camino walker who told me that it would break you down before it builds you back up. This is my first Camino so anyone care to enlighten me? Already I've had a few rounds of tears, both joyful and sad. I've ALWAYS known the limits of my body. What's hard for me to accept, 150 pounds down is just how much it CAN do! Any thoughts are most welcome. I am a naif but one always wanting to know more!
And thank you all. I now know I can walk hard for one day then need a rest day. The body is stronger than it was but I'm no every-single-day hiker yet. I'm taking potassium and magnesium tablets, drinking LOTS of water, and listening to my body, mind, and heart!
