The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
I'll be about as far away as you can get (New Zealand), but hopping on a plane that day to get considerably closer (Seville). Even if there are no forum members nearby you will have no shortage of friends!

Hello, I will be leaving Astorga on May 1st if all goes well, I am starting my Camino on April 16th in Longrono. I hope we can meet up and walk together a ways :). This will be my first long trek so I'm excited and nervous! Buen Camino!
 
Join our full-service guided tour of the Basque Country and let us pamper you!
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
I'd say hundred and twenty'ish arriving between 13.00 - 15.00.
 
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
