Just when I thought we had decided on a starting point, a post said that starting in Oviedo is very hilly and doing even 5 km a day is hard.
I am going to walk form April 22-May 15, 2015 with my son, who will be nine when we start. We would like to end in Santiago and are thinking of walking 15 km a day, but would not be able to do this in hilly terrain with our backpacks. If you think starting in Oviedo would be too hard for us, can you suggest another starting city? We will walk again when my son is older, but I would like our disperse walk to be as simple (dare I say "easy") as it can be.
PS: We have begun our training with a 3-mile walk a day and that is after a day of swimming, biking and general physical exercise.
PPS: He is very excited about doing this and has decided to raise money for the Children's Hospital in Wash, DC. They treat many ill children, regardless of their ability to pay for treatment.
