I decided to walk across Spain to pursue the many things I love about life: all things outdoors, spending time with friends, meeting new people, food, wine, music, and challenging the physical self. I’m fortunate to have a wonderful husband who has provided me with the encouragement, support, and love I’ve needed over the past several months of training and preparing. Many thanks to him, my family and friends who have all cheered me on as I trained through the hot and humid Mid-Atlantic summer.
