    Finally got over that "The Road Rolls Up & Down" bit, rushed through the resting, eating, and resting more, and now I'm in the unfortunate company of a black rider... I feel like I'm actually getting somewhere at this stage, and am very much looking forward to meeting elves in the next few days!

    I managed to get in a few miles in the last few days, putting my current total at 12.63 miles. So I have ...

    Hobbiton hidden as slopes rise and fall.

    Stop in a birch grove. Eat a frugal supper (ca. 10 p.m.).

    Hello there. Would love to join in. :)

    If you haven't seen this link yet, go here:

    Some of us less hardy folk have chosen to do the journey in smaller segments; look through the different paths and pick what you want to do! Although I've chosen to go to Rivendell, some other (smarter) people decided that the Prancing Pony was a good goal (~135 miles or something) before tackling the next part.

    Looking up through some of the posts, many of us have added tickers to keep track of our progress. Every so often, come back and report your progress!

    See you on the road. :)


    This cheeky hobbit lass has crossed the Brandywine Bridge and is now touring Tookland.

    Hah! I got to see Farmer Maggot today! And he's giving us a ride in his cart!

    My ticker is giving me issues with updating, but I'm up to 64.25 miles!

    3.5 miles yesterday, shooting for 10 between the bike and the elliptical today.

    Yesterday, I ended at "cross the water on a plank bridge". I started a journal for this, lol.

    Last year at this time, I was walking about 80-100 miles a week. Trying to get back there now, but it's been a challenge!

    Road ahead runs fairly straight and level. Behind them it curves slightly. BLACK RIDER. Sam and Pippin hide in a hollow. Frodo behind tree by road.

    Keep a stone's throw left of the road...slower going.
