(Day 19) I didnt even feel like i've made 5.9 miles today but its true. I was trying to think all the little songs we were learning in school so time went by quickly. 78.3 in total and i'm on path in the Forest. Nice!0

I'm definitely going to start my journey today~0

Day 21 - March Fourteenth
6.06 miles, for a total of 121.88 miles
We've been three weeks on the road!
We are riding North.
Frodo runs alongside, with frequent forays into the cuts alongside. His spirits are high: He loves having day-after-day of adventure. (I suspect I would be a bit more chipper for the occasional feather bed and long, hot bath!)

We have crossed the border into what was once Cardolan, part of the North Kingdom of Arnor.
A day or two, surely, until we are headed home once more?!?0 -

Traveling along the Great East Road. I think we are almost to Bree!0 -

Day 24 - The Seventeenth Day of March, the Year 2015 of the Third Age (by Shire reckoning)
7.10 miles today, for a total of 140.98 miles
We did not see the friend we intended to meet at Bree. Instead, there was a fracas, and we were aided by a Ranger. He has agreed to guide us to Rivendell.
We won't be going home any time soon.0 -
8.7 miles today, total 26.9 miles... Walking for pleasure! Why didn't I drive?0

(Day 28) After 5 days of being held hostage by 3 giant orcs i managed to escape and make 5.2 miles more! Total of 88.6 miles and its time to turn north! See you fellow travellers!0

(Day 29) Another rainy day so the miles are just 4.9 (93.5 total). Mery found a path along the river so we'd better follow it!0

In the last week I walked 18.4 miles (total 45.3 miles)0

(Day 30+Day 31 Zero miles)
Day 32 It's getting lonely on the way to Mordor. Today i managed to cover 3.2 miles and i'm pretty happy about it. The weather was bad but it will get better. I'm 96.7 miles away from home and i'm going to Tom Bombadil's house with him.0 -
Day 33. Another 4.3 miles today. Total of 101 miles. I left Tom;s house with a pony so no more walking for a while!0

Total : 108.8 miles! It's time to turn east. Where is everybody???0 -
63.8 miles, I reached Farmer Maggot's house~0

Day 25 - March the Eighteenth
Today, we traveled 5.5 miles. We have now come 146.48, in total.
We are headed north into Chetwood. Aside from ourselves, we have seen no living things all day. The silence, but for the sough of the wind, is almost eerie.0 -
Day 26 - The Nineteenth of March
With today's 5.6 miles, Frodo and I have now gone 152.08 miles away from our front door.
We are headed east. All is still quiet.0 -
Day 27 - March the Twentieth, of the year 2015 in the Third Age (by Shire reckoning).
With the ground dropping gently before us, we made good time, covering 6.5 miles in the day (total of 158.58).0 -
Day 28 - The Twenty-First of March
5.2 miles, total of 163.78
Still within the Chetwood. We think we are approaching its eastern boundary.0 -
March the Twenty-Second (being the 29th of our journey)
Today, our progress was slower. I cannot fully account for this fact: I think perhaps, having left the peace and shelter of the Chetwood behind us, the damp air seeps into our bones.
We made only 3.2 miles today, for a total of 166.980 -
Day 30 - March 23rd.
(3.4 miles, 170.38 total)
Still we travel eastward. I fear I am falling ill.

Days 31, 32, 33,34 & 35 passed in a blur of fever and pain!
We made such progress as we could - and huddled in such shelter as we could find, between.
In the five days, we managed 4.9 miles: Less than a typical days' journey... But forward, still, we went (for a total of 175.28).

Days 36 & 37 - The Twenty-Ninth and Thirtieth of March
Again, less than a day's travel in twice that time!
We have made 178.98 miles since leaving home, and find ourselves within the western edge of Midgewater Marshes.0 -
Day 38 - The Final Day of March
Though our progress in slow (only 2.5 miles, today), I begin to feel I might just survive the day - and perhaps tomorrow, as well...
At some point in the blur of the last week, passed our first full month on the road! This seems incredible to me: How much longer will our journey take?!?
We have already gone 181.48 miles.

Day 39 - The First day of April, in the 2015 year of the Third Age (by Shire reckoning)
I am on the mend! We traveled 5.4 miles today, for a total of 186.88.
Frodo is beyond delighted, too: He was bored, bored, bored, watching me huddle, shivering, in my cloak - and is ecstatic to be on the move once more!
