We are almost at the 100 kilometer marker, if indeed there is one anymore. We just passed one with a 100.7 kilometers.<\/p>\n

This will be the third time that I’ve passed this 100 kilometer marker, and it stirs up a number of emotions. What has this journey been about? What have a I learnt? What will change when we get home?<\/p>\n

The last hundred kilometers almost always throws up some additional challenges, at least for me. Yesterday on the way to Sarria, I twisted my knee coming down the steep incline, and for a while thought the Camino was probably over.<\/p>\n

But a night’s rest, some knee bandages, and some strong Ibuprofen, seems to have gotten me back on my feet.<\/p>\n

It’s interesting how these last kilometers have changed a little bit, and it makes me think that everything happens for a reason on the Camino.<\/p>\n

How the roles have changed!<\/p>\n

But it’s interesting how the Camino can almost play tricks with you. There are always twists and turns and curved balls, and I think they’re always there to help you learn a new lesson in life.<\/p>\n

I’m sure we’re going to make it in the final hundred, and we look forward to further lessons over the coming days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
