I wanted to take a moment to mention those around me that support me in my dream. I think sometimes these people are easy to forget in the excitement that is the mental and physical preparation for the Camino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are my family, friends, and even the company I work for (who thought it was so cool and even offered to change my pay over the past year so I don\u2019t miss any pay cheques while on the Camino). They are the cheerleaders, ego-boosters, and confidants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, to my wife Sandy who will have to deal with house and home for 5 weeks without a partner and still encourages and cajoles; thank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To my sons Kieran and Aleksander who are indulgent of the time I spend on this; thank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To my friends, Rick, Chris, Michelle, Kelly, Jennifer, Penny, Clint, Johnny, Gord, Marg, and others, who have for the past two years put up with my fluctuations from enthusiasm to \u201cWhat the hell am I thinking?\u201d; thank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To my workplace co-workers, HR, and owners for all the support and well wishes; thank you! To all the people everywhere that support these mad and wonderful endeavours; thank you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
