In 1988 The Proclaimers, a Scottish duo, wrote and performed one of pop music’s most singable and relatable hits of the late 20th century. The endearing theme of loyalty affirmed the commitment to endure any challenge or distance to stay with a loved one or friend.
In 2014, lifelong friends Justin and Patrick literally went to the Camino de Santiago, a 500 mile trek across Spain, and endured the unrelenting challenge of an “accessible Camino.” Justin had become paralyzed due to a neuromuscular disease and Patrick answered Justin’s prayer to do the Camino by simply saying, “I’ll Push You.” The resulting documentary film of the same name was released and five subsequent trips have been taken since.
This summer (2026) two more final trips will be led by Patrick and Justin, but these trips will also be accompanied by cinematographer Trevor Lubiens. In this episode of Michael in the Middle tells the story of how own journey to discovery as he recounts previous and deeply profound trips with his friends. Trevor also tells how they will produce a new documentary, “More Than Steps.”
It’s a fascinating hour that delves into friendship, doubt, revelation, and triumph!
