I'm not doing an official "Miles in 2012" challenge this year, but I am doing a Middle Earth miles challenge that will likely take me multiple years.
It starts in Hobbiton, goes all the way to Minas Tirith, then back to Hobbiton, split into stages. I'm currently on leg 2, and am at mile 253 between Rivendell and Lothlorien.
I'm such a geek.
