Hi.
This is me.
Your average, run-of-the-mill, ordinary guy. Well into my 42nd year of life. Watching my hairline retreat and my mid-section fill out. Finding myself busier than ever before, and also more tired than ever before. Becoming increasingly sedentary with each passing day.
An odd thing happened when I hit my fourth decade: the speed of everything around me seemed suddenly to take off at an exponential rate. And the more I tried to keep up the more I seemed to fall behind. Maybe it’s all the meetings, maybe it’s the incessant alerts on my phone, the endless flow of digital communications cascading down my computer screen. Maybe I am just getting older and slower than I used to be. Or maybe I am gradually becoming someone altogether different from who I have been all these years...

It's totally going to be worth it. Be safe and have fun.

Thank you, my friend! I will give it my best. Hopefully I can avoid injury (I am not as young as I used to be! 🤪). Hope to cross paths in Middle Earth! instagram.com/the_run_of_the_ring?igsh=aHg0dzNyZWt4bGF4&

I’ve seen the sun coming up over a cornfield in Nebraska. I’ve seen the waters off the coast of Mexico. I’ve even seen the stars come out on a crisp winter night in Korea. But this my friend was a truly beautiful thing you have created. I wish you all the luck in the world. You are an inspiration.

[@GrayArmyGaming]

Wow…. Thank you so much. It means a ton. 🥹 Maybe we will cross paths some day in Middle Earth…. 😊

[@thomaswilliams5005]

Sounds epic. Let’s do it.

[@GrayArmyGaming]

Excellent! The ring is on the move!! I hope to run into you in Middle Earth! instagram.com/the_run_of_the_ring?igsh=aHg0dzNyZWt4bGF4&

[@elijahf7578]

This is wonderful! I cannot wait to hear updates along the journey. I also have faith that you can and will succeed! I also thought that your love and story of Tolkien is also great timing for me since I am reading Tree and Leaf right now!

[@GrayArmyGaming]

Amazing! Such great reading! And thanks for the encouragement! This is going to be one heck of a journey! ⚔️🛡️🔥 Hope to run across you in Middle Earth! instagram.com/the_run_of_the_ring?igsh=aHg0dzNyZWt4bGF4&

[@calfinbro]

Let's go Matt! Love this idea. Perhaps I'll meet you on the journey somewhere.

[@GrayArmyGaming]

Caleb! I would love to have you join me somewhere on the journey! I will definitely be doing some runs with your brother (I am his Sam!). A couple of Hobbits could sure use a good Gandalf! 🧙🏻‍♂️Hope to cross paths with you somewhere in Middle Earth-either in the spirit or in the flesh! instagram.com/the_run_of_the_ring?igsh=aHg0dzNyZWt4bGF4&

And yes, it is cheating to ride Shadowfax! 😂
