The Heda Hike
So some of y’all may be familiar with the Walk to Mordor challenge: using milestones along the way, walk/bike/run/etc. the same distance the Hobbits took to go to Mordor.
Well, to be honest, I’m not an enormous LOTR fan. But I DO want to pay tribute to my Heda, who wants me to be as fit a soldier as possible. So, introducing:
The Heda Hike!
For this challenge, we start at the Dropship. From there, we march 5 miles (8km) to Mount Weather. After we take down the Mountain, we Wanheda Home to Arkadia, a distance of 25 miles (40km). Once we’ve made our peace there, we make our final Tribute in Polis: 50 miles (80km). This makes a total of 80 miles (128km) we’ll all be walking/biking/swimming/running/etc.
Rules for this challenge:
1. As long as the movement includes distance of some form, it counts! Treadmills and ellipticals count too. Just get your body moving!
2. You don’t have to do each leg in one go. If you’re only doing half a mile a day, that just means it takes 10 days to get to Mount Weather, for example. Miles moved are cumulative. Go at your own pace!
3. Reward yourself! To start you off, the lovely Nachos (@femininenachos) made some awesome milestone badges you can display, included below. Display them: by completing each milestone, you’ve made your Heda proud!
If you use any of the art or post about your progress, please use the tag #HedaHike.
Heda Lexa wants YOU! Let’s make her proud!
