That was some hike Seamus after the Frances and Finistere. Ok you would be finely tuned but 50 miles at approx ave 4mph takes some doing,well done!Flew home on Thursday 21/5/15, got home at 8 pm and on Friday drove to Sneem, County Kerry and at 5 am on Saturday 22/5/15 found myself on the start line for the Sneem J.F.K. 50 mile ( 80 km ) Challenge Walk and what would be a new longest single day distance for me if I finished. As usual, pictures are from a FB album of the day.https://www.facebook.com/supersullivan/posts/10204142382462072

Big believer in setting myself 2 or 3 demanding walking/ hiking challenges yearly, last year was a bad year when I failed in completing 2 of my 3 challenges, this year I was very determined to make up for that, set 4 targets and this was my 4th ( to complete the 50 miles in less than 14 hours ) target and to the great relief of my ageing body, was successful in all 4.That was some hike Seamus after the Frances and Finistere.

I stayed in Pension Codesal on Calle Codesal, on the road parallel to Calle Codesal, there is one cafe/ bar which is where I had dinner, it wasn't menu del dia but around €16 including a cafe con leche, coke and orujo if I remember correctly.WOW, that's what I call a dinner
What was the place you were staying for the night? Have you eaten in the same place? What were the prices?
Sorry if I'm too curious but it sure looks fantastic...
Definitely orujo hierbas has became your favourite drinkWednesday 20/5/15: Negreira to Santiago de Compostela.

What about beer??? I can't remember you've mentioned it even once and coming from Ireland
May I ask you how much weight did you lose on this last Camino. I mean the distances are way out of my comfort zone and at 24,5km/day average in 2011 I did loose 18kilos...
Anyway thanks for sharing your Camino with us!!!
Last pre camino training hike on a cold Sunday morning but with some nice warm sunshine in the afternoon saw a 20 km route starting like yesterday at Baravore then up Glenmalure valley to Table track, then climbed Camenabologue and Lugnaquillia before decending back to Baravore via Clogherenagh and Art's Lough. As usual, link is to a F.B. album of shots from todays hike.
4 sleeps to go before the flight from Dublin to Biarritz. Has time ever passed so slowly? If anyone has Stephen Hawking's number let me know as I need some expert information on the true nature of time.

So, Wayfarer when will you return to Biarritz?About 20 klicks from my apartement near Ilbiarritz to les Halles in Biarritz and back, the number of tourists, surfer and beach goers is beyond estimation. Most of them are here this week to enjoy the Fete du Bayonne which start the middle of next week.
You can run with the bulls several nights if you wish, but in this case to protect the public they are young bulls with big horns. Oh, well.
You must go through a lot of shoes Seamus! Very impressive, as always.With a view to possibly attempting a 100 km ( 61 mile ) stretch of the Wicklow Way in a day next month, stayed away from the Wicklow Monubtains and instead did a 54.7 km ( 34 mile ) walk from Bray to Wicklow Town and back along a coastal path.

someone wise wrote - time does not exist, it is an artificial construct, clocks exist..Time doesnt exist.
It is a human philosophical construct.
Right...
I would looooooove to be schooled by Stephen Hawking,i would,sit at his knee and just bask.
I recognize this trail - The beautiful "Loonse mountains".Another very local walk... A local trust opened a " play " orchard so kids can connect again with nature and all types of fruit ( an Apple is not an apple) And one of the many sunken lanes.

Brilliant news Wayfarer wishing you many future camino steps with blessings as you walk mate.I have spent since Sunday last walking in the Pyrenees with my fifteen year old grandaughter. Morning walks when the temprature is still low, the scenery is stunning and the daytime temps are around 25 -26c. The inclines are very steep but the views are worth it. Home tomorrow.
Should be fit enough for another Camino now.
Anniesantiago, I wish you a very speedy recovery! So that you can enjoy your favorite activities again.Today I jogged for 20 minutes in the swimming pool!
I'm taking it easy, breaking in after last year's injury - hoping to walk this year.
