I always thought, I know LotR. But a few days ago a friend asked, why did Boromir needs so long to get from Minas Tirith to Imladris.
This is referring to the quote:

It's about 1100 miles from Minas Tirith to Rivendell, so why does he needed that long?
The roads are dangerous, OK. And he doesn't know the exact location of Rivendell.
But 110 days!!!
Do you have any suggestions?
