  • Up to 101 miles accidentally entered the barrow downs :/
  • Slow day yesterday - 2.23 miles walked, for a total of 37.93! Took the right branch of the road to Stock, through the ancient Oaks. Just woke up in the crook of a huge tree, pressing on and feeling the urge to sing again!
  • I've only gone about 5 miles so far! I would not be a good ring bearer; Sauron would die of old age before I got started.
  • I'm late to the party, but I'm totally on board with this! According to this calculator, a mile is 2755 steps for me, so I'm going to go with 2750 steps/mile to make it a nice, even number.
  • Ran 6 miles today and walked an additional mile.
  • 7.15 mi bike ride and then walked 3 mi
