There's a section in the article that talks about a Camino pilgrim.

The Camino example was rather tame but I did like this quote - and remember it's midteen F not C!

“It was brutal,” recalled Mr. Ferris, who persuaded Mr. Roberts to sleep in hotels a few nights. “One evening I was probably lamenting our luck with the rain and midteen temps when Dave responded with, ‘If nothing goes wrong, it’s not an adventure.’ I thought that notion cut right to the chase.”

A great article. At 66, I can relate. Buen Camino
