Walk To Rivendell" aka "The Eowyn Challenge"

Just to put some of you down a little...

Sweetie, that's not a big requirement on this thread. Most of us really don't need any more of that. If we work up a little enthusiasm, please cut us some slack. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Interesting idea about doing some of it on horseback, if possible; but the trip from Crickhollow to Bree was only a small portion of the overall miles (135 - 73 = ... uh... 62? somebody check me), and for some, horses are hard to find and expensive to hire. I suppose, if one really wanted to, one could substitute a bicycle, if that sounded like a fun idea.

I don't think anyone should get bogged down or discouraged about a detail like that. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Indeed, the folks who put the idea together allow for any self-propelled mode of travel (yikes! Swimming 458 miles???) [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

This is meant to be fun. Fun! Playing with maps and following Frodo's wild and wooly hike-- yep, FUN! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I wish I could do it barefoot. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Not likely.

I'm hoping to scan some of Fonstadt's map pages for Frodo's trip (she shows milage rather nicely) and put them on my website; if I have room... I had to delete some stuff to put up the Bag End layout! Could be tight.
