  • Any grilled veggies with EVOO and salt / pepper really but we love doing corn on the cob (keep in husk) on the grill.
  • It all depends on your terrain, support you need, comfort level, etc. Personally for me I like a boot over a shoe and I want light weight and waterproof which is why I went with the Salomons that I posted. I own two pairs of Merrells shoes but IMO they're not good for rougher trails due to ankle roll. Yes they make boots,…
  • I use these (and have put about 150 miles on them of various terrain and temperatures) http://www.amazon.com/Salomon-Wings-Sky-GTX-Asphault/dp/B006W1ZXI0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1395173778&sr=8-1&keywords=salomon+wings+sky+gtx+2 And I can honestly say they're the best hiking boot I've ever owned and I've owned pretty much…
  • Where on your forearm is the pain? If you hold your arm straight out and face your palm towards the ceiling where is it hurting?
  • I'm assuming it's cooked already? Cut it up and put it in scrambled eggs and add sriracha. Make chicken spiedies with them (don't have to follow the part about them being cooked) 5 pounds chicken, cubed 2 cups olive oil 1 cup white vinegar 2 tablespoons lemon juice 2 teaspoons salt 5 cloves garlic, minced 2 teaspoons dried…
  • If you're worried about the heat then try Hatha yoga. Definitely easier to get into if you're just starting.
  • I keep a picture of what I used to look like (60 lbs ago). That's all the motivation I need.
  • I've done it before. It's a lot of fun. Things I would recommend is bring something to cover your mouth and nose when you run through the colors or you're going to be snorting/ coughing up color for hours and bring towels for your car.
  • I'm doing it in Rochester NY.
  • Kale chips are awesome too. Super easy and quick to make.
  • Monday - Run 5k to 10k Tuesday - Rock climbing for a couple hours Wednesday - Indoor Beach Volleyball usually for 1 to 2 hours Thursday - Rock climbing for a couple hours Friday - Run 5k to 10k and weight training Saturday - Usually hiking around 10 miles Sunday - off day
  • I use a Garmin Forerunner 610 with the HRM.
  • I'm kind of in a similar boat. I've been losing sizes in my clothes constantly and I can clearly see in the mirror that I'm losing fat but my weight isn't budging. I rock climb 4 days a week as my primary "lifting / weight days" Someone once told me that if you're doing a fair amount of weight training your body will in…
  • Prana jeans are the jeans that fit the way I want them to. Downside is they're $80/each but well worth the price. These are the ones I wear http://www.prana.com/axiom-jean.html?color=Antique%20Stone%20Wash
  • From my experience, the treadmill is nice to get you going but when the 5K date starts to come closer make sure you get outside and run on the roads. it's a totally different feel/experience. If you're dead set on the treadmill, put it on random incline and keep it at level 1 or 2 so there's a slight variance in incline as…
  • I generally listen to anything that's fast, loud, and prevents me from hearing my own breathing which is usually hard rock or metal of some kind. But lately I've been running to The Glitch Mob.

  • I'll do it. You guys should try the 100 push up challenge too. It's pretty intense towards the end.
  • My best advice is, go easy in the beginning and stay consistent. Just like anything else, injuries are capable of creeping up especially if you strengthen up too quickly and don't give your tendons time to catch up. Lot of fore arm injuries can happen as well if you come down too hard on your hands. Every climber will tell…
  • Thanks for the welcome! And yeah I'm going to track my meals and everything (when I remember!) as best I can.
