would you list the towns you chose to end your stages in that first week
All details in my blog, linked below. I assumed (wrongly) that my stamina/strength would improved over the first week, but I learned that my sweet spot is 15-18 km/day. Quite a lot depends on the heat. I always called ahead or had emailed some months in advance for reservations.would you list the towns you chose to end your stages in that first week?

Hi Chris. I have walked Le Puy Route twice entirely and this year just the first week. My blogs are www.gittiharre.blogspot.comI'm walking Le Puy to Moissac this coming June. Hearing about the difficulty of the elevation changes the first week out, I hope to walk somewhat slower for this section.
I am looking for advise from those of you who have walked this route. If you were happy with the distance you walked each day, would you list the towns you chose to end your stages in that first week? Or, if you felt you didn't choose well, I'd like comments on what you'd do differently if you were to walk it again.
Thanks!
Thank you. I will definately read your blog and PM you with my email for your additional info. Thanks!Hi Chris. I have walked Le Puy Route twice entirely and this year just the first week. My blogs are www.gittiharre.blogspot.com
I have also got a schedule for the route with accommodation and prices where I stayed. Could email to you if you send me a private message with your email address.
Definitely my favourite route aside from Geneva to Le Puy which I did twice.

Hi Sharon, looking forward to hearing how your RLS route goes. We never got around to walking that trail. Enjoy!The Le Puy route is stunning. I am sure you will love it. I'm not so good on hills, but this route is really not a problem. I have walked it twice before and will be walking from Le Puy next year, heading south on the Chemin de Robert Louis Stevenson, then from Arles to Santiago. Enjoy your planning.
Thank you, Jill. I'm thinking of a Paris to St. Jean camino, the next time I walk the Camino. This information will be filed away and added to the 'store' of knowledge.Hi Chris, this was the route my sister and I did in May 2014, which we were quite happy with.

Hopefully, will be as wonderful as other routes in France. I have read that it is a very popular route with many French people walking it. Will keep you posted. We start walking on 17th August.Hi Sharon, looking forward to hearing how your RLS route goes. We never got around to walking that trail. Enjoy!
We start walking on 17th August.
Unfortunately, will be in Lyon, but could try to change accommodation. Thanks NavyBlue.Hi,
If you can be there, the 15th August in Le Puy is something really special.
