  Thank you all for these wonderful posts. Last year, my wife and I planned a Camino for 50 days with multiple rest days given we are in our early 70's. We did SJPD to Roncevalles on the Napoleon route in 2 days. I developed back pain the second...

  One of my walking partners had a similar issue (however he is in his late 70’s). We got as far as Burgette and he took the bus to Zubiri while we trekked on. We planned to bus to Pamplona for a rest day but 2 of us woke with bad head/chest colds...

  SJPDP to Roncesvalles in one day is not for sissies. But you survived. Yes for the next few days there will be some pain and you should travel slower. Don't give up. I speak from experience. Good idea, if in pain, to skip the down hill into...

  Take it slow and easy to Pamplona. Rest there. From Pamplona skip the Alto de Perdon by taking a bus or BlaBlaCar to Obanos or Puente de La Reina. Walk slow and short stages after that until you heal. Enjoy the small villages, the people, the...

  @Ladybaguette, firstly, welcome to the forum. Secondly, stop knocking yourself for something that was not really within your control. Injuries happen, it's how we respond to them that matters. As I am still recovering from having broken my ankle...

  So you know you're not alone, in my mid 60's, first Camino, I made it to Orisson the first day. My calves were screaming, even though I had done a lot of prep exercises at home for more than six months prior. On Day 2, I made it to Roncesvalles...

  Be kind to yourself. You are young and have many ups and downs ahead of you. Heal, enjoy your time on the Camino in whatever capacity and for however long your are able. I did not walk the Camino until I was 65 years old. You are quite fortunate...
