Different Grams Of Bb's

STEP 3: The Home - Almodóvar del Campo










We said last night: - Tomorrow the stage will be tough. did not know how much.

Between Home and Almodovar del Campo have been more bad times than good. The distance was the first big handicap. Forty-three kilometers have been more than enough to realize how hard it is to walk and walk, no more, just walk. The stage has lasted no more and no less than eleven hours. Eleven hours walking espirgado relief that we must take up Almodóvar del Campo. This, without going any further, was the second the day's problems: the relief. A continuous succession of ups and downs that have ended causing much of a dent in the forces. In addition, had to climb the Puerto del Pulido, frankly, was more simple than expected. I did not expect was the difficulty of others, the rest of the road.

But still, we have planted in Almodóvar. Somewhat later than expected (about eight o'clock in the afternoon) and much more tired than expected, but at the same time, eager to believe that we have spent a large segment of our trip. You have to start thinking about growing, increasingly, the miles we leaving behind us and, by contrast, hampers those who still see ahead on the horizon. Upon completion of this stretch and we walked nearly a hundred miles (95 kms in particular), leaving us with more than one third of the way finished and adding ...

Tomorrow we enter the Ciudad Real and, for us, is an important milestone. First, as you might imagine, because brand Ciudad Real, about halfway, to achieve fifty percent of our goal. But besides that, it brings us closer to our land, the part that we know. On this occasion do not know well the path we will follow. Yes know where we go, but we have not seen the track before, and therefore we are not sure of the hardness of the stage. Still, we believe that will be easier, in terms of relief that we have made today. We assume that there will be more flat and it would make things easier. However, if we know that is another very long stage - on paper - and I would say too long in practice.

Tomorrow we will tell you how we "have established" the 41 kilometers (that makes the cartel Almodóvar, one more than in our accounts.) Indeed, today, and you can download all Photographs of these days, the first three stages! The links are left.
