    They like keeping busy! Seriously though you’re presumably already a pretty active person if you can one day just decide to go for a hike to the other side of the world.

      They didn’t do it in one shot though. They went to Fatty Bolger’s place first, then to Tom Bombadil’s, Bree, and Rivendell. I imagine that they gradually improved their strength and stamina with each leg of the journey. Frodo’s initial task was just to get The Ring to Rivendell, after all.
