Ow.

I've taken a two-day hiatus from training due to knee pain. I have crappy knees. My right is hurting. Ow. I'll be ok. I'm still determined to do this thing called El Camino.

A couple of friends are thinking about meeting me in Madrid after my Camino. How cool would that be? So if you're bored in October and feel like going to Spain (they might kick around Paris first before heading to Spain to meet me) ...

I think my backpacks are all too big (or way too small). My smallest non-day pack is 60+15 liters. I have one bigger than that even. I've only ever used them in the winter and winter gear is of course much bulkier. I'll be shopping for a 50l-ish bag. So much for keeping costs down.
