Another LOTR postcard :-)

Well my daily dog trudge and trying get at least 8,000 steps daily average in despite being tied to a desk job seems to be paying off as I received another lovely postcard from the LOTR Shire challenge.

I must admit, I wasn't too convinced that it would motivate me well when I started, but I have been proved wrong and will eat my words. My cynic of a husband reckons it's because I paid nearly Β£40 for the challenge, but I know it's a lot more than that!

I'm now 31% finished in 21% of the time I alloted myself. I'm sure the dancing in a field last weekend helped with that and we are off to see one of my favourite RnR bands on the circuit, The Zodiacs, on Saturday night so there will be plenty of jive steps to add too πŸ’ƒπŸ•ΊπŸ’ƒ

Moody picture postcard! Hope your runs were at sunnier times!

Sounds like you are well on your way! Yes, online challenges do motivate me as well! And they have my son!

Happy journeying!

Ha-ha....I'm already planning the next one πŸ˜†

I might do the second series as a batch buy rather than as stand-alone chllenges though, as it's much cheaper that way!
