    Oh dear goodness. I am now obsessed with the idea that I need to add a Runkeeper challenge of walking to Mordor and back!

    How do you add a challenge to Runkeeper?

    I have to say, your username seems like a perfect day.

    What did you do today?

    Naps and nachos.

    Alright!

    I was going to use a username that sounded really sporty, but then I thought "Who are you kidding? Just describe what you're really like."

    I thought NapsNachosNetflixAndNederburg would've been a tad too long...

    That's a lot of alliteration also :D

    On a serious note though, anyone familiar enough with the group system here on MFP to tell me if it would be possible to create a group dedicated to walking to Mordor ? That'd be rad

    I can't remember how I got a "walk 50km" to my Runkeeper. Just trying to find out. Not sure if it's a "challenge". You can have open challenges at Polar personal trainer site, but I don't have a Polar with GPS.

    Yer sorry I got in early with that one. I sometimes use it when I'm not feeling too sporty.

    If you do try it Lord of the Rings Style you need the right equipment, which is generally and axe or broadsword and a fuzzy toed Hobbit on your back.

    Plus they say walk but it's kind of a continues hard run - but don't worry when I'm out with the guys we normally have to hold the back the pace for the slow arsed dwarf.

    OK, there is a group called "To Mordor!" here, but basically that means that they've decided to walk to Mordor and stay there :-)

    Shall we create a new group called "Walking to Mordor (and back)"? Mind you, it's going to take a long time to achieve that challenge :-)

    And if you post your address on MFP. . you'll have lots of creepy slimy creatures following you. .

    In honour of Bilbo, should we call the group 'there and back again'?

    We'll allow the people to decide (or at least the biggest Tolkien fans) :-) We can create the group a bit later today. Or I can. Or anyone who wants to take charge :-) I'm too tall to be a hobbit!

    Wow, this is getting serious then. If the group needs a theme song can I suggest - Flight of the Concords - The Fellowship.

    I just realized how long it would take to achieve that goal :-) Oh well. Doesn't hurt to try!

    Haha awesome! I love douglas Adams, I have a much of his quotes hanging in my little office.

    I never watched quantum leap! So I didn't have that issue. Any of you guys watch any stargate? And do you Trekkies swing both ways into Star Wars? I sure do!

    Star Wars and Star Trek are barely comparable (other than being set in space and having Star in the title), so I'm cool with both. Choosing one is pointless.

    I enjoyed Quantum Leap during my youth (or whatever point in time it fell). Stargate SG-1 is fantastic. The original movie was good. I never could get into Atlantis, however.
