@kuriosiesouschristos I'm going to pimp a friend that I went to college with's blog: Walking With Wired. She did a shit ton of long distance through hiking starting with the PCT, then the CDT, and finished the triple crown with the AT. Then she went on and hiked in Arizona, Canada, Switzerland...

@uticus Keep hitting the gym 5 days a week. Continue with my goal of walking 100 mi/month Start adding biking back into my commuting routine. My old bike was stolen last fall. I got a new to me bike this spring, but I don't love the fit of it as much as my old bike. But, I also haven't ridden...

@christian2011 I'm too lazy to do math for percentages. I make around $65k in the midwest, single, no kids, live alone in my own small home. Gyms: $35/month; In winter I get a separate membership for more options which is about $30/month. Supplements: I probably spend about $400/yr on...

The first pair of shoes I got felt good on the dreadmill in the store and running around a short bit outside, but then after doing some longer runs (2-3 mi) the first week they felt off and were causing pain. No problem! They exchanged them for...

@koh Squat shoes can help with the lifting heels. I also have shitty ankle flexibility, but getting some squat shoes really helped. They have a raised heel, but it's solid so you can still push down on it. I have some Inov8 fastlist 360s and they are awesome. I only wear them at the gym and my...

@joyinsf I doubled up on my shower stuff and makeup and leave them at work. I'm lucky my work has a locker room with a shower available for use, so I go to the gym, go to work, and then shower and get ready at work. I also keep a pair of shoes that would go with most outfits I wear at my desk...
