We were excited to get going this morning from Triacastela, as once we reach Sarria we’ll be on the final leg.<\/p>\n

I have been concerned about Pat finishing with the injuries she is carrying, but she has shown some true grit these last few days.<\/p>\n

We were about 6 or 7 kilometers out of Triacastela coming down from San Xil on a new track, that is VERY steep in places. Had I realised, I would have taken the road…<\/p>\n

We were almost down, when my left knee gave out!<\/p>\n

I was now trailing behind Pat for a change. Another dose of ibruprofen kept me moving, but after a lunch break at Pintin things were not looking good. The knee was swelling and seizing up.<\/p>\n

So we taxi’d the final few kms into Sarria in the hope of finding a Fisio… But no luck. All booked out.<\/p>\n

We have just re-jigged all our accommodation bookings to try to keep the remaining days to around 15-17 kilometers. (Always seems to happen to me on the last stretch).\u00a0 I’m now armed with some elastic knee supports and higher strength ibruprofen.<\/p>\n

Hopefully we will still make it…<\/p>\n

Watch this space.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If the wheels fall off…all good. Maybe my Camino is really supposed to be about supporting Pat to finish hers.<\/p>\n
