What Ho! Quitting, I fought cravings by walking. Something about putting one foot in front of the other helped me calm down. I discovered that I actually quite like walking. So...I'm off for a long walk. Next week, I am going to do a hundred miles or so of the Camino de Santiago. This is a pilgrimage, in the footsteps of St James. I am going to walk the 500 miles over five years - a week each year. (The wife won't release me for longer! :D ) "The Way" was dramatised by Emilio Estevez in a movie starring his Dad, Martin Sheen. Look it out, it's not a bad watch. On Sunday morning, I, and some friends, will set out at dawn from St Jean Pied de Port in France to cross the Pyrenees. We will walk 17 miles or so a day, and hopefully on Friday night will have supper in Logrono, in the heart of Rioja. This year, we are walking to raise money for a hospice in Ireland, where an old friend spent his final months before cancer took him away. Next year, we'll walk for another cause. Follow along on www.sensibleshoescamino.com - it should be a laugh! Could I have considered this as a smoker? Nope. My life is richer as a non-smoker. Really.
