Camino 2022 - Camino Frances October to November - The Meseta - Part 4

The Meseta was the part of the Camino that worried me the most. I wasn't sure if we had enough time to walk the whole thing. Our initial plan was to ride a bike, to save a few days. However, I only learned to ride a bike last summer, and my skills are a joke :P. So we decided to walk.
I hope this video helps show some of the challenges of walking the Meseta. It is flat, but please don't underestimate it. I think the flatness is what makes it challenging. The distances to the next towns, plays tricks with your mind.
I also forgot to mention this in the video but, my feet, knees and calves, suffered the most in this part of the Camino. It might be because it's always the same muscles used. Where as uphills and downhills allows you to shift to different muscle groups.
Still I was happy to have the privilege to walk this part of the Camino Frances. It really is an important part of the challenge of walking to Santiago.
