[QUOTE="K_Lynn, post: 1032265, member: 98304"] Try to walk 5-10km a day, and a couple of longer days once a week with your loaded pack. Every hour or two stop walking, sit down, take your shoes and socks off and allow your feet to cool down. Put on a dry pair of socks and walk again. I found my feet got very hot on camino and just taking my shoes off for 5 minutes allowed me to keep marching. Walking 20+ km every day is very hard on your feet, ankles, knees, hips and back. Frequent short breaks and a longer coffee/lunch break will help ease some of the aches and pains. *make sure your shoes are a half to full size larger than you usually wear, your feet will swell a lot from the constant pounding. Buen Camino! [/QUOTE]
