    I left the marsh last night. Onwards to Weathertop! I'm struggling a bit now with the timelines in the books. Finding it hard to believe 2 hungry and injured hobbits managed a marathon distance a day for a month, even walking it.,..,

    Anyone else having trouble with the dates? Often I will enter the miles for the date, change the date, and then hit "OK". It then posts with a different date. My last 3 dates are all off by a day.

    Also, I see that the years stop at 2017... I hope they release an update in the next two weeks, but am not holding my breath.

    yeah my dates are all messed up too, once I stopped trying to adjust them they worked themselves out.

  • @tiny_clanger I also find that quite unlikely, however, who knows what you're capable of when you have the Nazgûl searching for you and the fate of the world hanging around your neck. :p

    @lowjax75 I really couldn't say. I don't edit the dates or pay attention to them. I just enter in my miles and call it a day.

    Yeah but why didn't they just hop on an eagle, get there quicker, shorten the war and save many thousands of lives?

    I mean, the eagles came and picked them up AFTER they got all the way to Mount Doom
  • @laurenebargar I hope you are feeling better! :/ Congratulations on finishing Buckleberry and Crickhollow! :)

    @Rickster1967 That's a very good question. Only J.R.R. Tolkien knows the answer to that. I would hazard to guess though that the answer has something to do with if it had happened that way, we wouldn't have the trilogy and the resulting movies that we have today. :P
