The story so far.

According to the Eowyn Challenge (which is a very handy resource), it's 535 miles from Minas Tirith to Isengard, and another 693 miles from Isengard to Rivendell, for a total of 1228 miles.

The Walk Time Calculator Suggests a pace of between 2.5 and 3 miles per hour. (I think my guys can probably do about 3.5 -- they're not going to be enjoying the scenery. Rounds up to 351 hours travel time.

Assume they're going to be going when they're not sleeping (16 hours), that's 22 days. Which seems like too little time.

Especially considering the "issues" that I'm going to be throwing at them.

(Personally, I really wouldn't buy them making the journey in under two months. After all, in Canon, it took the walkers 2 months to get from Rivendell to the Falls of Rauros. Though they did have to make a few course corrections. Still, they were all fit, at the time.


Hmmm ...

Anyway, I should probably head off to bed. Seeing as I have to be at work in just over six hours.

Finally got my computer back from the shop (again); the guy couldn't find anything wrong with it, but suggested that it might be a heat issue. So now I've got it propped up on an upside-down box top so it gets some air. It hasn't shut down in a almost two whole hours, yay!

While I was computerless, I hand-wrote the last chapters of Broken For Me; I'll be typing them in and posting them as I have time.

And it's still March for another 2 hours, so I have a last-minute contribution to Back to Middle-Earth Month. Which is actually the first chapter in a project I wanted to write years and years ago: In Place of a Dark Lord.

This fic is rated:PG for mentions of violence.
Fandom: Lord of the Rings
Characters: this part is Frodo & Galadriel, but it'll hit pretty much everyone.
