Post Camino Update

August 20, 2014 By nextphaseinfitness 3 Comments

Yes I’ve been a slacko! This is my first post since finishing The Camino. I arrived home on 9 July which is almost 6 weeks ago now. Anyone who has been reading my blog over recent weeks would remember that my father passed away on the second last day of the Camino. I was able […]

Bad news

Bad news

Today as I was about 5ks from the end of the days stage, I received a message that my father had passed away, couple of hours earlier. When I left home to come to Spain and walk the Camino, Dad was in hospital and not at all well. I thought long and hard about cancelling. […]

Day 32 & 33 Santiago-Negreira-Olveiroa

July 5, 2014 By nextphaseinfitness Leave a Comment

Day 32 & 33 Santiago-Negreira-Olveiroa

These two days were quite challenging, both in the profile and the conditions of the track. Quite a few hills, which my legs aren’t happy about, after suffering them for over 30 days so far. Also the track isn’t marked as well as the Camino was, so it’s been necessary to constantly be on the […]

Compostela & Certificate of Distance

Compostela & Certificate of Distance

There was much excitement today amongst pilgrims, striding towards Santiago, about the Compostela. This is the certificate of completion of the Camino de Santiago. Here are my certificates that I collected on arrival at Santiago today. I did get a kick out of seeing my name in Latin. I couldn’t really get excited about the […]

Day 31 Hello Santiago

July 3, 2014 By nextphaseinfitness Leave a Comment

Day 31 Hello Santiago

Started early and walked almost 35k today to make it to Santiago in the early afternoon. The legs were feeling really heavy and sluggish today, but I suppose that’s just due to walking every day. The hills wouldn’t be helping either, as they are much tougher than the hills at home. Santiago is officially the […]

Day 30 Palas de Rei to Arzua

July 2, 2014 By nextphaseinfitness Leave a Comment

Day 30 Palas de Rei to Arzua

34k today. A bit further than the guide book recommends, but I want to get to Santiago tomorrow, one day earlier than expected. Walking today was fairly fast, a bit up and down at the start followed by a long flat stretch with a small hill at the end. Today I really hit the jackpot […]
