You've been added to the spreadsheet and sent an invitation to the group. Welcome!0 -
I'm up for this. I do a lot of walking but don't log it all the time. Does this include just recreational and exercise walking or does walking at work count as well?0
-
I have a pedometer and log my total distance for the day.0
-
@NicolaMichelle93 and @cpanus how do you get in so much distance? It's been two days are you're at 11.14 and 17.58 already.
I've just started using a pedometer and am looking for ways to up my distance, which is currently mostly coming from walking for 45-50 minutes at lunch. I know about parking far away from a destination, but I work from home and often don't go anywhere other than out for my walk. Maybe I'll take laps around the house periodically, lol.0 -

I'd say intentional walking miles/ steps although if you track steps and such throughout the day (such as at work) you could include those too
It's completely up to you what you include and to your goals. Any sort of walking/ running is game.
Added you to the spreadsheet and a group invite is on the way!kshama2001 wrote: »@NicolaMichelle93 and @cpanus how do you get in so much distance? It's been two days are you're at 11.14 and 17.58 already.

I did an 8 mile Trail Run and a 3 mile walk the following day. May go out later too for a wander :P I also always try and walk instead of getting the bus when I can. But not when it's raining. Bleh to English weather!0 -
I'd like to join you. I love LOTR!
Added my name to the spreadsheet. Do you just do a running total yourself?0 -

Yep. Every mile you complete, just update it next to your name on the spreadsheet

Thanks! I ask because I usually walk two or three miles a day at work. I think maybe I'll do like exercise calories and add all intentional walking and maybe half of work walking.0 -
Can I join?

Totaling our miles as a group, we are half way to Rivendell!
(Not much thanks to me. Dratted knee. I may not have made it out of the Shire yet.)0 -

I'm stuck on a treadmill for the winter. There's no daylight left on my way home to walk in the park.
I'd be happy to join your quest.0 -
Totaling our miles as a group, we have left Rivendell and are almost half way to Lothlorien!0
-
Is it too late to join?0
-
Can I please join as well??? This seems really neat and a great way to self and group motivate 0
-
Oh, wow, this sounds so cool!
I would love to join.
Do we all start on the same date, or when we joined, or can we backdate a bit?0 -
This sounds so cool to me! I had been walking regularly about 10,500 steps a day (5 miles at my stride) but I got sick with strong sinus infection and now I am slowly recovering with cough and asthma. I wasn't to build back up and this seems like a fun way. It's been about 2 weeks since you started, can I join?0
-
I would love to join this quest. I hope it is not too late. This is such a great and creative idea! I am just getting back into walking and exercising and need the motivation. Can't think of a more fun way to get the miles in than going on a quest to destroy the ring.0
-
Do I add my name to the spreadsheet or do I need to wait for an invite?0
-
I would love to join as well please.0

You've been sent an invite.
Everyone has their own individual quest to walk to Mordor for their own individual miles, so in that regards, it doesn't really matter when you start, it'll count as soon as you start walking But as a group, we're already up to the walk from Lothlorien to Rauros, but your individual miles will help us on our group quest to reach Mordor.blackburn23 wrote: »Do I add my name to the spreadsheet or do I need to wait for an invite?

Sorry to hear about your illness, hope you're back on a strong road to recovery! You're more than welcome to join and you've been sent an invite.
Everyone else that has replied in this thread should have an invite waiting for them too!
