Stuck in Tookland

My walk to Rivendell has stalled and I have spent the entire week bogged down in Tookland. After last weeks efforts I was confident of reaching (and beating) my target of 40 miles for January. Then I succumbed to the cold and sore throat bug that the rest of the family have been suffering from off and on for the last month. In my case it has left me coughing and breathless, and definitely not up to walking in the rain. This week's miles covered: zero. Ugh.

Of all the places to get stuck, I think Tookland is probably one of the better spots on the route. Much better than, say, Weathertop. Or the Barrow Downs. :)

Seriously, don't be too hard on yourself. You'll be able to make up ground once you get to feeling better, which I pray will be soon.
