Anyone here from Kansas who has done or intends to do the camino?
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

I'm in Dodge City. I'm planning to start from Le Puy this summer. How long did it take you to complete the Camino Francés? I'm hoping 9-10 weeks will be enough for me to get all the way to Santiago.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Know of any good hiking paths for training in Kansas? There's nothing really where I am, just walking around town, or going to the gym.
 
I don't think anything can prepare you for the Camino. I also walked on a treadmill for an hour a day. No hills or mountains. Start slow and work your way into it. Use the first few days/weeks as a training. I wasn't in great shape when I started. 55 y/o overweight man. If you have more questions ask. What ever I can help with.
By the way I only speak English, no Spanish, French and didn't have a problem. Pointed a lot.
 
Your pack weight is key. My was 15 lbs total. Try to get it down as light as you can. I wore smart wool socks with silk liners. No blisters. A well broken in shoes and extra shoe laces.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
I've been thinking of going to Tallgrass Prairie, and maybe Konza/Tuttle Creek when I have a long weekend to go walking, just so I can practice the longer distances. And partly because I hate walking in town, where it's all concrete and traffic. Is that something that might work well for training?
