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. Three miles in and three miles back.
