    Jan 1: .............................................(Leave Bag End)
    Jan 1: 3.5 miles (60 min treadmill) (Total miles covered: 3.5 = Cross The Water on a plank bridge)
    Jan 4: 4.0 miles (70 min treadmill) (Total miles covered: 7.5 = Look back at lights of Hobbiton from first slopes of the Green Hill Country)
    Jan 6: 4.1 miles (total miles covered: 11.6 = Stop in a birch grove. Eat a frugal supper.)

    ...I am a little peckish. Glad I'm eating a frugal supper....:D

    Rlandbeck, I'm doing the same and only counting miles that I do on this program and (afterwards) that I jog. This "walk" will be a record of my jogging life.

    My boys are running with me and they love LOTR and the Hobbit. I am going to look this up ASAP for them as they will love it. I think it will help them...probably more than the 5K goal I told them I was signing us up for. LOL. As Mom, I'm more excited about the running than they are.

    Thanks!
