For me, I'd say maybe a hundred and fifty or so. Jon is so close to me that I could have driven there and handed it off in a morning and have had time for breakfast.

Helsinki to Berlin is about 1.100km as the crow flies. I did about another 150km in that two weeks...

Here's the tally, with many still not reported in - counting your milage while in possession, plus your shipping mileage to the next person. I know I put about 200 miles on the odometer while it was in my care. It then jumped 620 miles to the North when I sent it on to HiBeat. Grand total for my leg is 820 miles / 1320km

Still need milage from victor, HiBeat and Groundhog66. Just how many miles you did with the watch (estimated) and how many miles you shipped it off to the next person...

Counting miles I walked, drove and flew with it, plus a short hop by USPS to 69Chevelle's place, Google Maps says about 2760 miles all told

114M / 183KM 3,934 miles / 6 331 km
The funny bit is that I barely wore it except when I knew I'd take pics. I was fairly sure Murphy would show up and I'd bang it into something and end up putting a big gouge in the case if I wore it the entire time.

Sorry I haven't had much time to take the WT out, but I took it for a walk on the mountain on Sunday with Sarah and the boys. I grew up on Mt Wellington so I always enjoy it when we get up there. I stole this photo from my friend's FB. We had some fires in the central highlands last week, which resulted in a some spectacular sunsets. Map of the tracks from our starting point at The Springs. We set off along the North-South Track to Shoebridge Bend. Next stop is the Octopus Tree. Moving on we move out of the denser forest onto some boulder fields before we join the Lenah Valley Track and turn back towards The Springs. One of the many stone huts on the mountain. Last stop is Sphinx Rock, a sandstone outcrop that I used to abseil off when I was in scouts. And looking back up at the mountain. A couple of hours on the mountain feels great.
