Should lose weight even faster with the diabetes once they cut off a leg or 2.

Ordered a green curry and chicken satay for dinner, gave me more peanut sauce than was reasonable for chicken so I just ate the rest by itself.

@TriednTrue My favorite 14ers are the Crestones (Crestone Needle and Crestone Peak) in the Sangre de Cristos and Holy Cross in the Sawatch range. For snow climbs, Gannett Peak (this one’s in WY) has a couloir that the only reason we climbed was because we missed the trail and figured - let’s just go up… It was an amazing climb and I’m so glad we did it. If you’re looking for a 14er snow climb, the Angel of Shavano, the Lost Rat (on Gray’s) are both great starter adventures.

If you’re looking for just a nice winter 14er - Quandary, Pikes, Grays, Torreys, Shavano and Tabeguache, Democrat, Lincoln and Bross, Bierstadt, and Sherman are all ones I’ve done in the winter too.

How many have you done and which have been your favorite?

I confess I’ve finally been talked into trying CrossFit. This summer I will try it. Probably.

I hope it takes your fitness to the next level. And that the people you meet are excellent

If you haven’t signed the blood-oath yet, there’s still time to escape the country!

EDIT:
Crossfit isn’t a training type, its a cult

EDIT EDIT:
Crossfit is actually 10/10 and you’ll be pushed to your limits. If you’re being coached by someone that looks like a Bob’s Burgers character though - find a different gym. No one else in the world can sprint 1/4 mile, power clean 90% of their 1RM and go around for another lap. REAL crossfitters are badasses - its the one’s who sacrifice form for reps that ruin their shoulders.

That is a spectacular self inflicted beat down, and the bar to the shins makes it a master piece.

10/10. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Training to failure or training to fail?

One of my Econ friends has started working out.

It was very entertaining watching him struggle to bench the bar

He’s working with a great trainer though so that situation will be rectified soon

I’m wanting to try it mainly for the friendships. Everyone I know who does it has made long lasting friendships. Also wouldn’t hurt if I found my future wife in a CrossFit gym :joy:

I’ve definitely thought about it, I just don’t want to spend 200 (or whatever) a month to be miserable while also paying for a gym and having a home gym. Might get a punch card though

It’s definitely not cheap. But I’m the type of person that usually has a bunch of friends but they are all centered around a hobby. Ever since I’ve started working out seriously I have no friends lol so altering my hobby to be more socially oriented makes sense and will be worth it in the long run.
Definitely can’t be anymore money than racing :joy:

I confess that I was not able tk finish the entire rotisserie chicken…
The Whole Foods chicken is terrible- flavourless and soggy, even straight out of the oven.

It’s Econ karma. I’m being punished for my irrational spending

I confess that I made a poundstone shake using 1 lb of canned chicken. It looks diabolical but it does not even taste that bad

I also confess I will now be buying a blender. I’m tired of how long it takes for me to eat lol.

That’s 3lbs. of oven roasted disappointment.

On the other hand- Giant Eagles fried chicken will make you question everything you’ve ever known. It will send you on a Kantian journey through your soul reevaluating ā€œwhat is goodā€.

I’ll give it a try after exams

OK. I’m going to hold you to that too.

Hope you got yourself some galoshes over break. :grin: You might be needing them for a couple days.
