If you’re ready for another race, welcome to “Racing to Rivendell” where we are following Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Aragorn, Arwen\/Glorfindel, and Asfaloth (the horse who carried Frodo) as they race to outrun the Black Riders from Weathertop to Rivendell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(If you weren’t able to join us last week, you can still earn your Shire Sprint bib and certificate. Just check out the post from May 1 for instructions.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This virtual 5k race (3.1 miles) can be run or walked at home or any location you choose (please follow your town\u2019s current rules). You can run, jog, walk, use a treadmill, climb your stairs, or us an elliptical \u2013 whatever is most convenient and safe for you. 30 minutes of exercise can also count as 1 mile. Run your own race, at your own pace, and time it yourself \u2013 our 5k\u2019s are on the honor system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before you start each race, download a RACE BIB here<\/a> or from TORn\u2019s \u201cThe World and Works of J.R.R. Tolkien\u201d<\/a><\/strong> Facebook page. Write your name, nickname, or race time in the white box, then you can stop by our Facebook page and post a photo wearing your bib, or post in the comments below.

Once you have completed each race, let us know! Download your finisher certificate and share another photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you complete all four races, an additional special certificate can be yours! If you\u2019re so inclined, reading the section in \u201cThe Fellowship of the Ring\u201d that corresponds to this race might add a bit of color to your journey. Above all else, have fun. On your mark, get set, go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There will be a total of four 5k races in all. Check back on Friday for a new race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
