I.....am out of shape 😓

Took the minion for a little walk to the park to play and realized I really need to get back out there

After our dangerous encounter with The Black Rider we continue on our journey. Our mood is greatly improved when our paths cross with the magical and mystical elves.

These elves are much friendlier than the elves I've been reading of in Spinning Silver, for which I am grateful.

wanderinglynn Awesome! 🙌🏻 I finally downloaded the app and just started my journey (and then it‘s rained the last 2 days). 🤷🏼‍♀️😆 3y
LazyOwl @wanderinglynn that's a shame. I have no excuse, as I have a treadmill at home. Hopefully the weather improves soon. 3y
FantasyChick Hell yeah! You are killing it! Our indoor walking track finally opened up for extended hours (after only being open 2hrs a day on weekdays only for the last several months 😑) so i am back at it tomorrow! Love seeing these updates 😊😊 3y
LazyOwl @FantasyChick it's so motivating 😆 yay, hopefully you can get in some more kms soon 😁 3y

I‘ve learned so much from my fellow Littens! I‘m trying to become more active, so I‘m using the Libby app to listen to audio books to spur me on.

Tonight I listened to a short story by #NorthernIreland author Glenn Patterson about the DeLorean factory. Did you know DeLoreans were made in #NorthernIreland?

I‘m also using the #WalktoMordor app that I learned about here on Litsy to log my distance. Thanks, lovely friends! (Pic - tonight‘s walk)

Librariana I did NOT know that about DeLoreans! Thank you for sharing this interesting tid bit 😊 And thank you for sharing a picture of your surroundings. Looks lovely with a dash of haunting. 3y
BookishMarginalia What a lovely pic! 3y
Libby1 @Librariana - it‘s an odd story. The British government were trying to stimulate a flagging Northern Ireland economy and gave all kinds of financial incentives to DeLorean to set up his factory here. It sadly went bust quite quickly. I‘m glad you like the picture. 😊 3y
Libby1 Thanks, @BookishMarginalia . I hope you‘re well. ❤️ 3y
Texreader Wow that is interesting! I did not know that! 3y

Im making steady progress on my #walktomordor but have had a perilously close encounter with the Black Rider.

The Midnight Library has kept me company on my journey, which I've almost finished and Sam is reading me The Pool of Two Moons; a fantastical story of witches and magical beast which has been a welcome distraction from the long journey ahead.

FantasyChick WooHoo!!! You're doing awesome! It's been bitter cold here but I'm still hoping to make it to the Rider before the month is out! 3y

January was a mixed bag for #BFC21 - I did accomplish my reading goals of 2 nonfiction books & about 2/3 of my days of stretching, but completely bombed on my goal to walk more!! With that in mind, I'm joining the #WalktoMordor this month to see if it inspires me to get out more!! For my reading goal, I want to clear my #BookSpinBingo board - challenging, but I think it's doable.

Thanks for hosting @wanderinglynn !!!

curiouserandcurioser @TheAromaofBooks @wordslinger42 and i are doing that:) i think we have walked 7 or 8 miles so far! It is so much fun lol 3y
TheAromaofBooks @curiouserandcurioser - @FantasyChick posted about it yesterday (or maybe Saturday lol) so there are some more handles of Littens are participating there if you're interested!!! I need some inspiration! 3y
wordslinger42 @TheAromaofBooks @curiouserandcurioser I think it's great motivation!! Especially when you're looking to get away from the Black Riders 😅😅 3y

This wasn't going to be a thing but I'm seeing some interest so....now it's a thing 🤣

Calling all Hobbits, Wizards, Elves and Dwarves! This is your official invite. We are leaving the Shire and need a Fellowship. Walk, run, jog, bike...it doesn't matter. Download the Walk to Mordor app to begin your journey and start hitting those milestones. This is a long trip so take it at your own pace. It's all about getting out there

👇👇👇

FantasyChick It's easy. Plug your distance into the app and show us your milestones! We are following the book, not the movies so there are lots of them to get to. Add your app handle in the comments and I will follow and support you along the way. If you want to post your progress here, tag #WalkToMordor and me and I will cheer you along! Let's do this! @Hestapleton @TheAromaofBooks @Clwojick @LazyOwl 3y
Hestapleton SO PUMPED FOR THIS! You can find me on the app with the same handle I use here (including the @)! 3y
Soubhiville I started this a couple years ago and I‘m a bit past 1/3 of the way there. I think if you just search for Soubhi you‘ll find me 😊 3y

LazyOwl I'm at harvoid81 @ Outlook .com if anyone wants to add me 💕 3y
FantasyChick @BookwormAHN sent you a request! I tried getting the profile pic to work but I can't get it to upload. A friend if mine had issues too. If I can get it working, I'll let you know! @Soubhiville @TheAromaofBooks Sent you both requests 3y
AmyK1 I downloaded the app the other day when you posted about it. Got my dad to download it too 😁 You can search for me using mattema3@gmail.com. Or just Amy 3y

I think I got my #BookspinBingo list for Feb ready. My Feb goal is to meet the Black Rider on my #WalkToMordor challenge so I'm hoping to get lots of #audiobooks in! I almost hit a #blackout with Jan's bingo so I'm going to try again and see what happens!

Mostly met my January #BFC21 goals! Didn‘t get a #bookspinbingo blackout, but I came close. I also stuck with my Bible reading every. single. day.
February goals:
📚 Stick with the #bookspinbingo blackout
🏋🏼‍♀️ Stick with Bible reading, drink two full water bottles every day (80 oz total), and get at least halfway to Encounter with Black Rider for #walktomordor

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! What a great month!!! Also, tell me more about your Walk to Mordor?? I need some walking inspiration!! 3y
Cinfhen Awesome month ❣️❣️❣️ 3y
Hestapleton @TheAromaofBooks it‘s an app I found out about from @FantasyChick ! It breaks down the walk to Mordor (1,932 miles) into milestones based on the books! It‘s delightfully nerdy and perfect motivation! You can follow me at @hestapleton (with the @)! 3y

FantasyChick Yay! Awesome goal! I'm hoping to meet the Rider in Feb, weather permitting. @TheAromaofBooks stalk my page! I think I'm going to repost the challenge since I'm seeing some interest. It's going to be so much fun 😄 3y
TheAromaofBooks @Hestapleton @FantasyChick - Oh my gosh how fun! I am definitely going to look into this!! 3y
Clare-Dragonfly Ooh, I‘m using the Walk to Mordor app too! I just followed you! I think my username is Clare-Dragonfly but I can‘t find it in the app to be sure. 3y

Achievement unlocked!

Took to the treadmills today, had a litten listen and made it to Tookland. It's a small sort of accomplishment but I'm feeling good.

Clwojick 😱😱😱😱😱 what is this? Is it an app! I love it! 3y
FantasyChick @Clwojick Yes!!! My friend and I found it and it's the only way I could speak to her geeky little heart to get us walking 😂 We are starting off really slow because the windchill from the ocean right now is BRUTAL but we have high hopes that once spring hits, we can really crush this challenge! 3y
Andrew65 This looks great 😍 3y
