60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday: 5 Weeks 500 Miles Walking Camino

<p>Hello, to listening in <a href="https://www.esmadrid.com/en">Madrid, Spain</a>!</p><p>Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds, your daily dose of hope, imagination, wisdom, stories, practical tips, and general riffing on this and that.</p><p>Every year at this time I retrace my footsteps across the Camino de Santiago: 5 weeks, 500 miles, on foot, a pilgrimage that split my life into Before Camino and After Camino.</p><p>It took me 48 hours to arrive at my Camino departure point. A flight from California to New Jersey and on to Madrid, Spain, a bus across Madrid to the station for my train to Pamplona, a taxi to the albergue where I stayed overnight before another bus trip across the border to St. Jean Pied de Port, France, and a final overnight before I actually set foot on the Camino.</p><p>I felt exhausted, uncertain, anxious. I wondered if my pack was too heavy, my boots sturdy enough, my courage available. They say the only way to know Camino is to walk; with no options left to me I set out in the rain for whatever was next.</p><p><strong>Question</strong>: What is next in your entirely unscripted day?   </p><p><i>This is the place to thrive together.
