Hills and woods

The final long walk of our training - 10km over fairly strenuous terrain. Harder than the Camino according to Terry, with steeper hills and rougher underfoot in places. He says I can be pleased with myself and should be able to manage the chosen stretch of the Camino from Oviedo easily now. We only plan short walks for the rest of the week, just enough to keep us from seizing up.
While we are on the Camino we (or the family) will be posting on Return to the Camino so that you can follow our progress.

The causeway shows how muddy/wet this track can be. It is still needed in spite of a long dry spell.
