Hello, my beautiful friends!
It's been a bit dreary in my neck of the woods for the past few days. Hopefully we see some of those lovely sun rays today, but I think it's doubtful.
I'm a little over the halfway mark for the first stretch of the Virtual Lord Of The Rings Challenge from The Conqueror Events. I have to say, I'm really enjoying this challenge. I bought and downloaded the kindle version of the entire book. Fun fact, instead of the 3 books the we have come to know, I guess it was actually written as one long book. Since I bought the kindle version and it's one long book, it's a little difficult to know at any given moment. So as I have been working on the virtual challenge, which is around 140 miles, I have also been reading the book. I've really been enjoying to it, and I have been plugging away at it. In fact, I've liked it much more than I thought I would!
Well, I thought I was getting towards the end of the first "book." I was pretty proud of myself. And then, as I turned the page on the kindle app, I discovered that I was only half way through the first book. (I know it may be confusing to those that have not read LOTR before, but each of the 3 books actually has "books" in it. I was kind of disappointed that I was only halfway through it, but then also happy knowing that I still had so much of the story to read!
I normally get roughly around 5 miles in every day (I have it synced so that it calculates my total mileage for the day). Sometime I get more. However, this past Friday, the weather forecasters weren't joking when they said it was going to rain all day. From early in the morning until late in the day, it rained. and rained. And rained. I think I had almost 3 miles in for the day. And then Saturday, I worked 12 hours. I did go out for a quick walk before work, so I did manage to get in about 4 miles for the day.
I would like to finish this challenge before the end of the month, and it shouldn't be too much of a problem. As long as the weather cooperates, I would love to have my finishers medal in hand before Dec 1.
I hope this motivates you to get moving, in whatever way works for you. If you would like to join the conqueror challenges, please go to https://www.theconqueror.events/
