Day three will break you, and then rebuild you

Day 3 will broke you. And then rebuilt.

Nobody tells you about day 3. Day 1 you're euphoric. New boots, new friends, the whole adventure ahead. Day 2 your legs are sore but you're still running on adrenaline. Day 3? That's when it hits.

The novelty wears off. The blisters are real. You realize there are 750km still to go. And somewhere between Pamplona and Logroño, you have a quiet breakdown on the side of the road and wonder what on earth you were thinking.

Every pilgrim I've met who walked the Frances has a Day 3 story. It's almost a rite of passage. Because that's the day you stop walking for the adventure and start walking for yourself.

Push through Day 3. What's waiting on the other side is something you can't plan for.
