((Lin)) Sounds like you have set some good goals for the coming year. Welcome to the Eowyn Challenge! I started in October and it has kept me exercising more than once when I would have either procrastinated or just plain quit. If you haven't signed up under a group yet, check out the Walk To Rivendell group at yahoo. They are a really good bunch. As for Boromir's miles - what a cool idea - please keep us posted as you go along! If you have The Atlas of Middle Earth, maybe you can figure out the mileage from it.
