Serendipity Indeed!

If every walker currently registered on the shields page walked 32 miles between now and then, we'd definitely reach that goal, but not all walkers are active at the moment. Because of that, we'd like to ask everyone still active to walk at least 100 miles between now and then.
Indeed I am still walking, although I have been absent from this site for a long time! With no knowledge of this new challenge, I finally made it over to the Eowyn Challenge site (I've got the update mileage page bookmarked directly, so I didn't see the challenge) and I added 285 miles to my previous total. I hope that will help! I am now staring up at an endless expanse of ladder-like cuts in a steep hidden part of Cirith Ungol, having gotten there by trudging through some crunchy ice/snow, oddly! It is good to know there are walkers still walking, and my trip through Mordor won't be quite so lonely!

BTW, has anyone noticed a certain reluctance when making the approach into the territories of Mordor? Every now and then, I feel a hand pushing me back, trying to keep me from finishing, slowing me down...perhaps I've taken my identification with Frodo a little far? I hope it doesn't get worse once I'm in Mordor Proper...

Cheers!
Lyta
