    I have a silly question. I don't typically count my steps in a day as exercise. I do always aim to hit my step goal, but don't count reaching it as excercise that I document in my food/exercise diary, unless it was part of a work out (like running). Do most people count their normal daily steps toward the journey? Not that it matters, I know folks can use this app however it suits them! I'm just curious. :)

    I count mine. At the end of the day I go into my Garmin and count how many miles it says I did that day and put that in. I set myself a minimum step goal that I try to hit every day (unless I'm really sick). Some days my daily walk is just hitting that step goal and then I'm done. :( Other days I'm able to go farther. :) If I just counted actual exercise it would take me forever.

    I don’t think I knew you had a garmin @Faelwyn_the_Rising_Phoenix . I have almost no friends there. Mind if I add you?

    I think it will also take me forever if I don't log my normal steps. But I'm going to try for now. It'll encourage me to run more. :)

    Made it to Tookland on Thursday, then went for a great 7+ mile hike on Saturday! 17.6 miles until the encounter with the black rider.

    Hey everyone! So, I started using this app called Walk to Mordor and I'm loving it! So far I've walked from Hobbitton to Tookland and am now 12.42 miles away from Encounter with the Black Rider.
    With the app you log your miles (or km) and it calculates them into where you would be on the journey that Frodo and Sam took in LOTR. :) The whole journey is 1,932 miles which is gonna be over a year for me. :o
    Who wants to travel with me?


    Omg! This made my day and is the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. I downloaded the app and I can’t wait to start! How fun!

    Downloaded the app because of this thread and hoped I could stick with it. I have 6.04 miles to Meet the Elves now. This is a great way to make sure I get in my steps.
