    I did 4.4 miles on the elliptical today. I'm close crossing the Great Road from the Brandywine Bridge to enter Tookland.

    Two weeks in and I've stopped to rest, eat, and rest some more. By tomorrow I should run into the first Nazgûl... :devil:

    Up to 31.5 miles and am stopping to rest, eat and rest some more. Should reach the first black rider tomorrow, provided that it doesn't snow too bad tonight...

    Yesterday: 1.4 miles walked, 14.4 on the stationary bike

    Now up to a total of 33.5 miles!

    This just happened: 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

    OHNOES!

    Total is up to 41.2 Miles. "And NOW to bed!" Pippin says, when BLACK RIDER is heard again (ca. 9 p.m.). ELVES arrive, RIDER leaves, and Frodo & Co. continue with Elves.

    I'm coming into this group late and using my walking records since Feb 6th (129.3) as my starting point. I hope that's ok.

    So, based on the tracking chart at http://home.insightbb.com/~eowynchallenge/Tools/Bag_end/bag_end.html, it appears I'm 6.8 miles into "Return to Great East Road (ca.5:30). Tom departs. Strider sees them, but hides." If all goes well, I should reach Bree by the end of the day today ;)

    I'm at a total of 42.1 miles! Wood more dense, and lane went lower, running in a fold of hills, with hazel on the slopes alongside. Pippin quickly becomes sleepy.

    Ok - haven't posted for a week or so...cos I forgot. Anyway, since the 1st March I have covered 12.5 miles which takes me from the 40 mile mark to 52.5 miles!

    That means I am now on day 3 and .5 miles into Reach area of the Marish with fields, meadows, hedges, gates, and drainage dikes.

    Total 62.2 miles
    After a turnip field there is a stout gate to a rutted lane, edged by hedges.
