i am wondering how your body feels after completing the camino. Of course, you experience a huge surge of joy and accomplishment. But how are your legs?? Your stamina? your blistered feet? Have you grown stronger from the daily walking or do you need a week to chill out?
I have 6 weeks and hope to get from St. Jean to Finestre. after the pilgrimage i head to italy for a cycling tour. i'm wondering if i should consider shortening my route now in order plan some mandatory chill out time, or if i'll be strong and ready to go.
also, any chance i'll be able to find a bike in santiago (perhaps from a biking peregrino) and borrow it to do a little riding to get my legs to remember what a bicycle is?
