Hey Desota,
I wonder if they could "Fed Ex" what you're looking for. (You understand what I mean by Fed Ex. )

No problem Desota. I did the same last year. Go to Decathlon, as they have a big range. You have NOT jeopardised your trip - merely furnished it with an extra-nailbiting element!
Desota,If you can please not ask how this happened I would appreciate it. Let's just say some last minute decisions on my part have left me with a pair of shoes that aren't working.
I'm supposed to start walking on the 6th.
I was told there is an intersports store and a decathlon store within a 30 minute walk from here. I will visit there tomorrow and pray for a miracle. If I hadn't been stupid I would not be without my saucony xodus size 42 shoes (sized up by 1).
Instead I have shoes that are stiffer soled and WP but rubbing my feet.
Now I fear I have jeopardized my entire trip. And in this moment here in the dark of night I feel quite exposed -- admitting to all of you that i made a totally avoidable and ridiculous blunder. Hard to know in this moment what could be worse: admitting I need help or punishing my feet.
Please don't criticize. I'm doing a great job of that on my own. But if you have any helpful thoughts please share them.

Okay everyone here's an update.
Thanks flewwitheagles for the tale of broken bones ... I'd like to hear more about that.
But the evening is looking up and the trail starts tomorrow.
I don't know if I could have done it without a few words of encouragement.
Thank you all. I am pretty clear on what the lesson is in all this. Not sure about the fix for it but I'm guessing the camino is going to provide some practice sessions.
With appreciation and a big dose of humility,
Susan
