Planning: CP / CF or CdN 2022
Hi,
at the moment I'm trying to calculate how many days I'll need for the CF from SJPdP to SdC. My time budget is quite adjustable - my wallet is unfortunately not quite as flexible ;-) - but everything between 40 and 60 days is o.k. I would like to narrow it down a bit, so that I might already be able to book a return flight.
I am aware that the number of stages / required days - in addition to restdays or unplanned events - depends very much on the daily mileage that I'll be able to walk. At the moment the stages will probably be shorter than those of an average pilgrim, but hopefully I'll be able to built up stamina and walk longer stretches after a while.
Long preface, short question: I would therefore be interested in your experiences, whether you were able to walk longer stages after lets say 10 or 15 days or not. And, if your stages have become longer, could you tell me much longer they got in kilometers?
I know that one can't really compare one to another, it's sort of like looking into a crystal ball , nevertheless I'd be happy to hear about your experiences.
In addition, I'd be interested in something else: I have read in various posts from time to time in this forum that some pilgrims needed quite some time to recover after the Camino due to the unaccustomed activity. Have you made a similar experience or not really? Thanks in advance for any answers.
