I have added something new to my customary walking - walking sticks! Not the traditional kind, not just one, but two modern, lightweight Nordic walking sticks. I don't know if that variation is as popular in the rest of the world as it is here, but I have heard so much about the added benefits that I decided to try it. At first I thought it looks rather silly, since it's a summer version of cross-country skiing to all appearances, but if I can get more benefits out of my walking time, and that with a reasonable investment, it's worth it!
As to my location, I suppose I'm on my way from Mt. Doom to Minas Tirith, but I'll have to look up the distance and figure it out backwards to know just where I am...
