Something to motivate you in your pre-Camino training

[Stinky Pilgrim]

An inspiring story of an 89-year-old walker from Seattle who is nearing the 20k mileage mark (since Feb. 2011). I'd say he is Camino-ready:

The 89-year-old 'Walking Man' of South Lake Union closes in on 20,000 miles through a changing city

Bill Hoppin started walking and tracking his mileage in 2011 after his son, Steve, gave him a GPS watch. Now, he's on the verge of a milestone: 20,000 miles walked around his apartment, South Lake Union and Seattle since then....

Reminds me of a story my son sent me yesterday. Here’s hoping it will be me in 20 years!

What’s with all these fit old people in Seattle?!

90 years old, walking three miles in ten inches of snow in an hour. WOW.
