The Journey
The Way of St. James or "Camino" is a 500 mile journey across northern Spain. It began as a Roman trade route until it became a Christian pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, the supposed burial grounds of the apostle James. Today, thousands of people from all over the world gather on the Camino for many reasons. It is an opportunity to challenge yourself physically, mentally, spiritually, and contemplate life while traveling with strangers from every culture on this planet.
Justin & Patrick will start from St. Jean Pied de Port on the French side of the Pyrenees to Roncesvalles (15 miles) on the Spanish side and then another 485 miles on to Santiago de Compostela through the major cities of Pamplona, Logroño, Burgos and Léon.
Typically, the French Way or "Camino Francés" usually takes four weeks, allowing for one or two rest days on the way. However, because we are traveling by wheelchair, we are planning for approximately 5-6 weeks to complete the journey.
So, Why Are We Doing This?
We want to actively promote physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health and wellness. Through this, we will celebrate the human spirit and the value of friendship by creating opportunities for personal transformation.
What is Our Desired Outcome?
A 5-7 episodic documentary covering our 500 mile wheelchair journey on The Way of St. James to Santiago de Compostela, Spain. Each segment will be 10-15 minutes in length and released online for maximum audience reach.
Editing for each episode will be done within approx. one week of filming so the documentary will have a "real-time" feel. Additional post-trip opportunities for release could be a full-length feature (60-90 minute), TV (30-60 minute), DVD, etc.
Ideally, the documentary will be released sequentially online via a project-specific URL. We will drive traffic through a highly targeted social media advertising & promotional campaign using Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and purchased media. Additionally, our partners can release concurrently through their respective social media & PR outlets driving additional traffic and awareness.

We all have our different Caminos and we can be Justin, so we ought to take his Christlike example and embrace our afflictions and infirmities with Hope in Christ and make goals that will not only change our lives but others as well or we can be Patrick, that call for help,let us say without hesitation,boldly and louder "I WILL PUSH YOU!"it may seem at first as their Camino but God would have placed us there to learn something.
This was Godly and i know God has not stopped talking or teaching us,this is another form of scripture and how i wish all the world would know about this, this teaches about every union in life be it marriage,family associations and fellowshipping in our different religions. This is another depiction of two greatest commandments, I am grateful to have read this book watch their videos and I pray many will too.
Thank you Justin and Patrick
These two guys are so amazing and such great examples of Faith and a belief in God's perfect plan. This story relates to anyone of all beliefs, of two men stepping into the unknown, facing a challenge head on and believing their needs will be met. Their needs were met and we give glory to our Creator!
I am inspired and humbled by you both. From a fellow Idahoan,
Peace
What a life changing story! Thank you for sharing this with the world!
