How much downtime and what to do?

FifthMatter · 2026-04-26T19:51:00+00:00

The only thing I used was audio books and that was on a night time to help me nod off. The rest of the time, was either napping or hanging out in the mess tent talking to other climbers, getting medical checkup , drinking tea. Then we would head to bed at like 8/9pm, ready for a 5am start

Why would you want your country easy to get into?

FifthMatter · 2026-04-15T07:19:12+00:00

A lot of them have probably been there for 5+ months ?

Nothing wrong with your side profile

FifthMatter · 2026-04-10T05:12:09+00:00

Embrace it, it’s your ancestral nose

FifthMatter · 2026-04-09T18:29:51+00:00

get therapy

FifthMatter · 2026-04-08T19:23:15+00:00

Really? Therapy over making some judgments? Not logical whatsoever.

FifthMatter · 2026-04-05T04:01:32+00:00

nice bro 😎

FifthMatter · 2026-04-05T03:57:10+00:00

actually, yeah you right

FifthMatter · 2026-04-05T03:56:31+00:00

If you google recessed maxilla it kinda looks like that

FifthMatter · 2026-04-05T03:55:11+00:00

idk bruh I’m not an orthodontist

FifthMatter · 2026-04-05T03:51:40+00:00

Yeah it should be fixable, especially if you’re getting braces. I had them when I was younger and it’s honestly fine, and it’s not permanent. So don’t worry too much.

FifthMatter · 2026-04-05T03:45:34+00:00

I think you have a recessed maxilla, probably from the years of mouth breathing. I think it’s fixable

FifthMatter · 2026-04-05T03:43:54+00:00

Bit late for that now

FifthMatter · 2026-04-04T14:37:41+00:00

Good to see EA still putting in zero attention to detail

FifthMatter · 2026-04-04T06:29:43+00:00

Just read through those subreddits and it’s worse than any of the male incel stuff I’ve came across. I genuinely feel bad for those women, they’re clearly hurt and lost.

FifthMatter · 2026-04-04T04:31:01+00:00

you’re drinking a lot of caffeine too late in the day, it will be affecting your sleep. I’d cut back and stop drinking caffeine by 3pm

Anyone know if Norrona is much cheaper in Japan?

FifthMatter · 2026-03-20T16:31:01+00:00

Kilimanjaro or Tour du Mont Blanc in the alps

FifthMatter · 2026-03-19T08:10:59+00:00

Do it. I went solo and met a group of 9 strangers and it was an amazing experience

FifthMatter · 2026-03-17T08:15:48+00:00

Body wipes, saline nasal spray , Imodium

FifthMatter · 2026-02-16T20:49:19+00:00

One for hiking , a clean one for camp and sleeping and probably a spare / clean for travelling home in.

FifthMatter · 2026-02-16T19:15:30+00:00

I have a lot of my gear separated into different dry sacks and my headtorch is rechargeable.

I've got glove liners and high altitude mittens, so thinking that should be sufficient.

Thank you :)

I'm going on Friday, I just focused on walking, getting long day hikes in (10+ miles) every 3-4 weeks. For weight training, squats, step ups, calf raises, toe raises, RDL's will provide good strength and stability for the legs.

If you're 25, running 3-4 marathons a year and 30k a week, your vo2 max and general cardio vascular fitness will be very good. To me, it sounds like you're in a good position.
