We leave Lyon for Le Puy en Velay

Before we walk, our journey starts by exploring its beginning in the town of Le Puy en Velay. This is where the pilgrimage begins (I define pilgrims as those walking for spiritual or adventurous reasons or both) so it is important to us to tread the ground of this ancient village prior to our long walk

About the Author: Will Boag

I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease in 2010 and am in the middle stages. My symptoms include a decline in muscle movement; occasional muscle spasm and internal trembling of the left side of my body and mouth; intermittent external trembling of my left arm; restless arms and legs; decreased facial expressions; an abnormally high production of phlegm; tiredness; and lower voice intonation. These symptoms have mostly remained unchanged since diagnosis. This walk is about showcasing that life doesn't end with Parkinson's, in my case it has given me a kick-start to live an rich life and working towards the best possible outcome.
