A note on Day Zero Project on the goal: Complete a 'Walk To Mordor' challenge

I have officially walked 964.4 miles, which means I am 49.9% of the way done! I think that is as close to half done as I'll get without busting between now and the next time I log so, f*** yeah! Less than one year. Also, definitely need to walk more daily.

Crossed Redhorn Pass and an about to be attacked by Wargs. 760 miles down. Over 1000 still left. It's been 9 months since I started this thing. Maybe I'm not walking enough on the day to day..

I met Glorfindel, passed to Ford of Bruinen, made it to Rivendell, back-tracked to the Ford of Bruinen, and am trekking slowly toward Holin Ridge. I have about 130 miles until I get to Holin Ridge and about 1372 miles to Mordor. I started this thing about 6 months ago and I am only 29% done with the journey. How did the Hobbits do this trip in only a few seasons?

Been awhile since I updated this. I have made it through Weathertop, past the Trollshaws, met Mr.Bilbo's Trolls and am nearly at the location where I can meet Glorfindel. The weather has cleared up nicely here in Beijing so I have taken to riding the bus into work and walking home. We'll see how much that changes. 405 miles down, 1527 miles to go. (less) (less)

Almost to Weathertop with less than 2 miles to go. I have 1623 miles to Mordor.

I am between Midgewater Marshes East and Weathertop. Between December 7th and now, I have walked 212.65 miles. I have about 2 years left to walk another 1719.35 miles. Good thing it took the hobbits and dwarves several seasons to walk it, as well!

I am at Midgewater Marshes West with only 4.5 miles until I reach the east! 193.5 miles down!!!

I am between Bree and the west side of the Midgewater Marshes! (150 miles down 1800 something left) We can do this. Right?

I have made it to Tookland. (Which means I've walked five miles) That is not a lot...
