Itinerary:

This is a series of LONG WALKS training hikes.  It's the experience of walking the Camino.  Each subsequent walk will be a little big longer.

The pace will be around 2.8 mph.  There is no elevation gain on this hike, but you must be able

to walk at a moderately fast pace for an extended period of time on a hard surface. Four miles in

and four miles back.
