Oops, just got the new thread created for you. HERE is the link, and the spreadsheet is linked there. Happy New Year all!!

(ex. my journey has included walking/steps, hiking, running, biking (distance/3), and swimming (distance*3)) Begin Your Journey Now! SPREADSHEET Open the spreadsheet, click on the 'Sign Up' tab at the bottom of the page, fill in all fields labeled in yellow, and begin tracking and logging your distance in the appropriate monthly tab. “It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to.” - Bilbo Baggins

Yes!! No changes still, but I will have the 2020 version ready. I finally started running again. I am going to see if I can't finally make it back home!

Hey All! Just wanted to let you know I created a new Topic for the Walk to Modor in 2019. Just a quick copy and paste job, but thought we should have a new home to get our walk on for the new year. I hope to be joining you all soon. Happy New Year!

I do not plan to start a new topic. @TGP, or anyone else interested in keeping it going, you are free to use the spreadsheet for future challenges. 2019 SPREADSHEET Hopefully I will figure out what I want to do with myself and join you later on. Happy Holidays! P.S. Let me know if you find anything that needs attention in the spreadsheet. I will be happy to help.

I checked real quick to see if there was a problem with the spreadsheet, but could not find anything. Have you been able to access the spreadsheet yet?

Hey all! I have been largely inactive on nerd fitness for quite a while now, outside of keeping the spreadsheet running for this forum. I wanted to offer the opportunity for more active users to be more involved. It has been awesome seeing so many of you keeping the forum active and adding to the story. I think it would make more sense for those more invested in the adventure and this forum to be the one to run the forum. I am also open to passing ownership of the spreadsheet to that person, in which they would be free to update or add any new ideas, if they choose. If no one is interested or able, I would be more than happy to continue to maintain the spreadsheet. I just can't promise much in terms of updates anytime soon. Let me know if you would be interested. Great job to all of you who continue on your journey to destroy the One Ring!! Hope to meet you on your travels one of these days!

Welcome to the New Year! I let injury and health issues dominate and derail my 2017. As I continue to recover, I have decided to not let these issues prevent me from doing the things that I love anymore. My immediate goal is to cut my internet usage to next to nothing, and in turn get more sleep, return to a healthy lifestyle, and be more productive. I plan to get out much more for hikes and strolls with my daughter, and really hope to start running again. That is my start and I hope to achieve so much more. In regards to the Walk to Mordor challenge and spreadsheet, let me know if you have any questions or find any errors. Hope you have a fantastic year and good luck on your quest to destroy the One Ring!!

Happy New Year All!! The new thread has been posted in PVP Challenges (LINK). Good luck in your quest to destroy the One Ring!

Howdy! I have the new spreadsheet all ready to go for 2018! Before I make a new thread though, I wanted to know if anyone else wanted to start it instead, maybe with more creative ideas in mind, or just someone with more presence here on the forums. Otherwise, I just planned to copy and paste the original post in to the new thread, and am unlikely to be around much (trying my darndest to cut my internet addiction...). I am also open to someone taking over the spreadsheet, only if they really, REALLY wanted to AND they are good with spreadsheets. I just don't want to monopolize this activity if there are others interested in running it. Hope you all are doing great on your journey!!

Fixed! Thanks for finding that! There was just one misplaced letter in the formula made specifically for your situation. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I just got back last night from rafting the Grand Canyon for 19 days!! And now leaving in a few hours to visit family out of state for the weekend... Hopefully I will be joining the walk again soon. Happy walking all!!

Awesome! Welcome Max! If your gonna run, might as well run through Middle Earth! I likely won''t be running for at least another month. The foot turned out to be more of a problem that I thought. Great job to the rest of you! Keep racking up those miles!!

Running, kicked a rock, tripped, caught myself deep in stride, and kept running, not hardly missing a beat. So nothing cool unfortunately lol. Didn't hurt or even feel it at the time. I actually ran 12 more miles. Next day it was swollen a bit, and just never went away. Nothing painful or anything, just nagging. 3 weeks later I finally realized it was serious. Now I have 6 weeks in a boot and no marathon to show for it :-( All will be good though. I will make up for it when I am freed from this confounded contraption. I will make it back home to The Shire!! How is everyone holding up? I would almost trade the weather with some of you, with me being mostly grounded anyway. Because it has been REALLY super nice here in Phoenix lately! My daughter is loving it though, so sorry... *knock on wood* (things like this are probably what gets me in trouble, jinxing myself, and breaking things)
