I’m still working through my challenges but … not as much as I should be. Example?

Moving Monday: from Canada to Chile
My step challenges press on… and so I left behind the virtual West Coast Trail…

After peddling my little legs off (necessitating a reduction in daily miles to save my aching knee), I finished The Conqueror’s Lord of the Rings Rohan mission and move on the Helm’s Deep.

I’m sending my pedaled distances to the Great Barrier Reef virtual challenge, and my walked distances to the Yosemite virtual challenge, both from the Conqueror.

The Conqueror recently rolled out a Yosemite challenge. A mere 54 miles. But something I can walk over the course of several days.

Just as I approach the 40% milestone (and another tree planted) I (virtually) make it to the Whitsunday islands.



The email postcard starts off by telling me:
Hamilton Island is located in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef and the Whitsunday Islands. Imagine swaying palm trees, white sandy beaches, and easily accessible coral reefs. The Traditional Owners of the Whitsundays were the Ngaro people. In the mid-1800s, Europeans settled in the region as sugarcane farmers, graziers, and loggers. By the late 20th century Hamilton Island was turned into a tourist destination. Privately owned, only a third of the island is developed. The rest remains in its pristine, natural condition.
Plus it looks absolutely breathtaking.
I continue to make progress on this one, a little each day. 1317 miles feels insurmountable and yet I’m chipping away at it, more than 550 miles already completed.
Wishing you progress on your projects as well!

Once I finished Easter Island I immediately started the Conqueror’s Kokoda Trail, in Papua New Guinea.
