Be careful out there, narr. I just read a story about an elite cross country dude who got lost in the woods in Alaska and ended up losing his legs.narr wrote:Ahahaha, so I decided to go for a walk on the small roads in the forest. When I'd walked about 25 minutes, I realised that this road doesn't lead home - and I hate turning around and going back the same way. So I decided that it was a good idea to just simply head out in the real forest and find my way back through itAfter a long time, I ended up on someone's private property, and the dude offered to sell me his house. I finally made it back home, a bit later than expected.

Re: The running/exercise streak thread
Yeah my minimum is at least an hour of working out (non-running) or at least 2 miles running a day, whether that be treadmill or pavement.turned2black wrote:Be careful out there, narr.

Re: The running/exercise streak thread
Yesterday got in 3.106 on the treadmill. I'm not exactly fast but I feel my time is suitable to start adding some more distance. It is currently 9 degrees out and windy so don't think I'll be getting any road time soon, but hopeful.

Re: The running/exercise streak thread
Nice work, guys and gal.
I found out this morning that I have Valley Fever (coccidioidomycosis). My doctor's a sub-3 hour marathoner and knows better than to prescribe "rest" for me. So his recommendation... lots of garlic.

An intense longing for the music of Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, followed by acute visions of pastoral American imagery and a phantom waft of hickory smoke on the olfactory glands 24/7.

Re: The running/exercise streak thread
I'm going to give this a go. I am doing a fair bit of cross training though, so my workouts will vary. I hope this is fine, since I'll still endeavour to do something every day.
I can narrow it down to these minimums:
Spin/mountain bike 15km minimum or running 2.4km minimum* or weights/core workout.
*(I'm training for my 1.5 mile sprint in under 11 mins again
)
The core workout is a mixture of medicine ball workouts, plus I'm doing the 30 day challenges for sit ups/crunches/planking, squats, and push ups.
This morning I did 15km on the bike as well as a core workout.
Streak: 1

I think it's kinda gotta be 7 days a week. Just a quick run around the neighborhood on Saturday and Sunday would work.Rangi Guy wrote:We'll I've made it to the gym every working day this year so far.

Got about 45 minutes of resistance training in, I never logged my stop time seeing as I had to start troubleshooting my boiler that was locking out: deadlift/dumbbell shoulder press/hammer curl/kickback/roman chair crunch/incline dumbbell bench

7 miles in 53 minutes + vanity workout
Long fucking day. To make things more interesting, I ran to the gym with every intention of doing some weights, then running back home. The run there was kinda terrible because I hit every light. I got to the gym and did my vanity (chest and arms) workout. I was pretty fucking wasted afterward and decided to skip the run home. Luckily, I ran into a neighbor at the cafe and I didn't have to call my wife to pick me up.
Streak: 10
