Just a quick update...

I can't believe it has been a month since I posted last. Time sure flies! Under 5 months to go!

Not too much new to report. I have been busy training and getting the equipment in that I think I will need. I am up to walking about 13kms at a time now with little problem. That said, the first time I walked that far, I was pretty tired and achy by end. So far, I have pretty much walked on flat surfaces and only carrying my day pack (about 1/3 of the weight of my Camino backpack). I plan to start taking different routes around the city so I can train on a more diverse terrain. I have some day hikes on some trails outside the city planned as well. As long as I am out moving every day, whether it's 5 or 15 km at a time, its fine by me.

As for the equipment, it is slowly coming together. There are certain things like the rain jacket and the clothes that I need now in order to figure out if they will work.

I have got my accomodations in both Paris and St Jean Pied de Port locked down now too. It's a relief to have that part done. The rest of the accomodations are just going to happen as my Camino unfolds.

More later...
