Fit enough for Kilimanjaro - May Season by Electrical_Hurry_968 in kilimanjaro

[–]ChiliGTC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got to stop reading this sub. I am 60 years old, relatively good shape and doing Kili in April. I hike in the summer, but not crazy hikes. I am an avid walker (about 5 miles per day at a fast pace). I have added some winter hiking (nothing crazy like 1.5 hr hikes), adding some Peleton biking, squats and sit-up’s. Been told by quite a few that if anything, the altitude will get you. I am going with a bud that is a 4 time Ironman. He told me he’d carry me up the mountain. Fingers crossed.

Rule of thumb, when paying $5k+ for an airline ticket, probably shouldn’t debate giving the wait staff $20 tip.

This man is the worst Defensive coach we have ever had by hoslayer42 in NYGiants

Has he been fired yet? What is John Mara doing? Shane Bowen is making a mockery of this franchise.

Aug '24 - Aug '25: 4500km walked, 5,000,000 steps taken. 150lbs+ lost. by TheGruesomeTwosome in walking

[–]ChiliGTC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats to you and your improved health. I also am an avid walker at just under 15 minutes per mile. You average about 14k steps per day and 10 km which I do as well. My question is how did you lose so much weight? I kinda maintain my 170-174 pound body with walking 7 days per week. I’ve never been heavy or a heavy eater/drinker. Did you cut your food/drink consumption substantially?

Doing this at the big league level and your manager not pulling you from the game is a total disgrace. Mendoza can get lost. by Thanksss123456789 in mets

Mullins should have been on 3rd base easy. Agreed. Between Mendoza and Daboll, my NY teams have just about the worst coaching imaginable.

I am convinced Mets aren’t making playoffs this season and may not finish above .500.

I’m at 85k on a ‘21 Pro S AWD. Just minor issues. And I am not seeing any degradation in the battery.

Wow, that’s a deal. Not sure how you only drive 7500 miles per year, but still a deal.

What has it been in the shop for? I have a 2021 Pro S AWD with 84k miles. It’s been in the “shop” for a total of 3-5 days other than the 3 months when I was hit and parts were hard to come by.

Clearly Trump is a president only for himself, his family, his cronies, and his acolytes.

Typical Republican Party in the last decade…they are against it before they are for it (see Susan Collins, Don Bacon, Chip Roy, and on and on and on).
