  1. Their twitter literally posted Lee’s announcement tweet as this news came out. Beautiful timing.
  2. lolz @ Beware Soceroos!
  3. I promise you can get to 100 a day in a month no problem. I started doing 10 pushups 5x a day and now do 20x5 a day. The difference in the way I look today is crazy from just 6 months ago, and it's not just the weight coming off. My arms and chest are bigger and more defined - I really feel like I look like I did in my 20s....maybe 30s...at least from the nipples/elbows up. Try this schedule: 1st thing in the morning - like, right out of bed Right before starting your workday Just before lunch Just after lunch Knock out the last set before 5 Start w/ 10 each time, and move up as you feel stronger. 12x, 15x 20x...and if you can't get it done that set or that day, so what? Try again tomorrow. I have an accountability partner I text with 5x a day and a great thing is giving each other grace for not achieving that day's reps for whatever reason - sick, busy, taking the weekend off to celebrate or travel, it doesn't really matter the reason. You're doing this for you and as long as you are committed, you can come back and make it happen tomorrow.
  4. I try to get 50mi a week, which makes 2500/yr. I'm well under that goal this year - strava says 61 rides for just over 1300mi, so maybe at 1400 max. The reality is that unless you're really jamming out, cycling isn't awesome for losing weight. Great for keeping moving and being active, and damn sure better than sitting on your ass, but your heart rate just isn't getting into that max window enough to burn a bunch of calories. Spin class does a much better job imo, but I'd much rather be outside in the elements. I will say that not riding to bars/breweries will help you drop weight! Last night's ride:
  5. If we're going hybrid, there's only one:
  6. Man, that was a tough read. Had to stop several times and remind myself that she obviously lived before going back. What a warrior.
  7. Never bought a record Pretty sure the 1st cassette I ever bought was Styx - Kilroy Was Here Couldn't even begin to think about the CD? I didn't have a car w/ a CD played until like 2000 so it was never a big thing for me. Downloaded was probably Pimpadelic - So Damn Tough
  8. Celtics are 10-2 since Walsh was moved into the starting lineup (5-7 prior). He's shooting 62% overall and 45% from 3. But more than anything, it's the defense:
  9. If Nash and Kieran got hit by runaway busses, Texas twitter would be 10x better immediately.
  10. This feels so validating
  11. Chicken Parm Roasted garlic and butter Provelone Sauce, stack, slice
  12. Appreciate the bump. Forgot to post this one from the other day. Dude was an easy 75+, if not 80.
  13. This, more than anything else. He recovered the last couple of races, but this stretch here cost him the title:
  14. Age and a shitty car/team.
  15. Nifty goal against my side this morning
  16. fuck me running
