According to this news article, http://www.hoy.es/extremadura/201508/10/estado-grave-peregrino-golpe-20150810214806.html, a 50 year old pilgrim on the Vdlp was hospitalized somewhere between Aljucen and Alcuescar because of heat stroke. He is in serious condition but it seems that he is improving.
This pilgrim was walking at 4 pm, which is an awfully hot time of day, and the temperature was around 40 (that's 104 F).
Be careful pilgrims! Buen camino, Laurie
