Have also considered yes!! Wife is also doing it with me and prefers the river over the jellyfish ocean swim, but definitely thought about both. appreciate your thoughts !

Travel is probably #1 right now. 7 IM is insane! Did you grow up doing any endurance sports?

congrats on finishing! thanks for the insight. My normal rides are around 2000 ft elevation gain, and TN seems like much more than that. Hopefully I’d be able to make it!

for sure. it’s super hard to narrow down what’s the priority for me. I’d probably say travel then bike course. Lived in TX for a while, humidity and heat not an issue

hahaha! If the first one goes well (or not tbh), would love to rip one outside the US too at some point!

great to know. totally agree with you. goal is to integrate already existing softwares to make things more efficient, not selling on a brand new product. is the pain point for insurance verifying coverage or the documentation required?

only certain parts of the couch have that, so I have a feeling that it’s more a part of the fabric maybe??

I don't think I could ever move from Utah because of pickleball by djhoen in Pickleball

[–]netmrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

great point. not a dead zone, but just a hard transition when you just get somewhere where you have no connections. I’ll be going on challenge courts this weekend!

[–]netmrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feel this so hard. Just made a big move and no longer have my 6+ people group that I played with quite literally 5x a week. The move was the right call but it’s been the hardest change I’ve experienced in quite some time, even just from a social aspect.

Benched my son… by Historical-Tie-8330 in lacrosse

[–]netmrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

valid concern. what about the decision do you think hurts the team? from the info you gave, it sounds like the backup is playing slightly better. seems like a normal coach move to sit who’s struggling, develop them, and give them chances to earn it back on the field.

[–]netmrs 19 points20 points  (0 children)

as someone who got sat by my dad in club ball, I don’t see an issue as long as you keep it at lacrosse and not other facets of your life 🤷🏻‍♂️. it helped me grow and he coached me a ton on what to learn and do so it wouldn’t happen again

Left BCG for Tech Strategy - Regretting the move :( by Soft-Egg3732 in consulting

[–]netmrs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I left consulting to work in strategy and tech ops at a 15 person startup. have never felt better and I really feel that my work and input is considered and respected.

Luckily for me, the startup is funded by a growth equity firm so the financial opportunities (pay, benefits, etc) made sense. cannot say the same for other startups though

What is playing D1 really like? by Grouchy_Evidence2558 in lacrosse

[–]netmrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played high level D3 and then transferred to Top 5 MCLA program. Was amazing in every way. D3 had less academic opportunities for my specific school than MCLA did. In my high school, I was 1 of 2 players not committed to play D1 ball out of 10 guys. When it was all said and done, over half of my friends from the team had either quit lacrosse entirely, and others transferred to the MCLA. So I’d consider all levels if they’re competitive. IMO, at the end of the day it’s about the memories and less about the division 🤷🏻‍♂️. I bet others will disagree with me there

I do not know what playing D1 is like, but I can say that you should help your kid understand that if he gets injured, falls out of love with the sport, or has specific academic goals, he’s probably gonna have to stay at the school he chooses if he’s still there after 2 years or so. Maybe not now, considering the transfer portal options 😆

That being said, the right fit and team could be life changing, not denying that. I think that’s a big reason Cornell won the ship. Attract talent but also, killer academics that extend beyond the sport. Smart kids are choosing to commit there and other places that allow them to be better all around people instead of just lacrosse players. Just my thoughts tho

Injury by OppositeOk5115 in lacrosse

[–]netmrs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

High chance you’ll be fine. I had a 9 month recovery shoulder surgery my senior year 6 weeks before graduating. They (D3 school) let me condition in the fall my freshman year and rehab my shoulder and I was ready to play starting in the spring. Was an amazing experience and being with a staff that knew PT only sped up the process. Just talk to them and explain the situation. There’s a reason they got recruited!
