I am planning on walking the Camino Madrid in fall 2015 or spring 2016. I would like to avoid if possible the shock of walking with the crowds on the Camino Frances to finish the journey. Is there a way?

Hi, Michael!I am planning on walking the Camino Madrid in fall 2015 or spring 2016. I would like to avoid if possible the shock of walking with the crowds on the Camino Frances to finish the journey. Is there a way?
I've made Madrid to Leon in 20 days but can be done quite easily in 18 I think.The move I read the better combining the Camino Madrid - Camino Frances to Leon - Camino Salvador - Camino Primitivo sounds to me. Looking like September of 2015. I'll have about six weeks - enough?

I don't think so. Although all (or at least first few days) depends on your fitness, stamina and how you "co-operate" with your gear. That means how much your boots/shoes are broken in, how your backpack suits you, how much weight you carry etc.Is this too ambitious as a first Camino?
My son will be walking the Madrid in June of this year. We also wanted to avoid the CF so we are leaving the Madrid route at Santa Maria la Real de Nieva and jumping over to Arevelo to join the Camino de Levanto to Zamora then doing the Camino Via de la Plata
to Granja de Moreruela and finishng on the Camino Sanabres to Santiago de Compostela.
Our stages are probably going to be:
