This thread is for those who are walking on the Barrow-Downs, but are too busy or lazy to walk all the way to Rivendell!
Those silly people in that OTHER thread are going to walk a whole 458 MILES, whoa whoa whoa! Come on now, don't kid yourself, if you're anything like me, (and I know you are) you'll never make it.
But with this challenge you only have to walk 73 miles! And you can still reward yourself with a HUGE chocolate sunday! mmmm-mmmmm
SO lets get out there and make Fatty proud!

I will accept this challenge! 73 miles is perfect, as I don't want to lose my shape (that being round). Thank you Mho, for giving me this inspiration. Or was it I who inspired you? That's all I have to say, i must get up and start my walking now.
Where would I be without you Mho? Even if you are making fun of me.

I hate to go off topic, but how does this rival anything that I have ever done?

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

Me either.
But who wouldn't love to take the Frodo challenge?
(Approximately) 1000 miles from hobbiton to Orodruin. Middle-Earth is much smaller than it seems. One thousand miles is a little more than walking from Chicago to Denver... I think I'll stick with the Gaffer's Challenge. I'm off to the garden.

he he ha ha
I am happy to say that I finally made it past Crickhollow!
I know that I won't make it to Rivendell by Dec, but I might before the DVD Release in Aug smilies/smile.gif

BWAHAHAHAAAAAAAA!!!! This is great! Makes me feel better for being only 47 miles along on the road to Rivendell! I could just stop in at Crickhollow (when my lazy legs get me there!) and hang out with Fatty Bolger until the Ringwraith knocks on the door...uh, on the other hand, I think I'll start running to get to Rivendell on time! smilies/wink.gif
And I think I read somewhere the Frodo Baggins challenge to Orodruin would be close to 1600 miles. Don't quote me on this though!
Cheers,
Lyta
