re: Do you work out when you’re on vacation?

in the last 10ish years i've got to run downtown San Antonio, Forth Worth, McAllen, Boston, Portland, Maine, Portsmouth, NH, Flagstaff, San Diego, Vegas, NYC, Steamboat Springs, Denver, and some others I'm sure I'm missing.

Love running when I travel also. Most recently got to do 5 miles in Stillwater, OK, which was awesome.
I don’t run when we go to Europe, since you walk so much when you’re there. I still knock out the daily 200 pushups and crunches though, where ever I’m traveling.

Usually

Nope

like what time we talking about? the side walks are filed with construction and smelly homeless folk and tourists stopping in the middle of the walkways. Even walking trying to dodge people is a chore.

Not saying they don’t exist but it’s pretty light around 5-6AM. That being the eastern most part of the Pacific time zone, I’m usually up early.

Definitely had to dodge some revelers at that hour though.

One time at 6ish on a run, AM I saw a woman stumble out of New York New York with a top and no pants or underwear on, jump down to the strip, fall, get up, look around, and then cross the strip, jump the barricade, cross the other side, and climb up to get to MGM arse out, then disappeared into the building.

I was at the ready to have to save a dumb ho.


ETA: I haven’t been to Vegas since 2020 before covid. No idea what it’s like now but it was doable.

I bring my gi to roll BJJ, but I'm sick like that

I do it as well but I bring my gi everywhere. What is even sicker is I bring a white belt to some schools and just kind of tell the instructors I am just starting out even though I am a Brown Belt.

not me, I pity them. Your life is so shitty you have to work out on vacation to feel something? Replyreplies1...

Terrible mindset. I’ll do a light workout or two on vacation so I feel better and can keep having fun. Makes drinking all day and eating shite somewhat excusablle.

For a forum obsessed with hating fat people, it’s weird you would mock me for that mindset. Unless you’re fat. Then it makes sense.

---

Not mocking you at all, you just sound like a female. Looking in the mirror to make sure your pecs are up to date is cringy as frick.

If you come to where I am this week you do. Estes Park, Co and RMNP.

All I’ve done is workout for 4 days now hiking in the mountains.

Weird that you added such specificity to my statement.

I meant that when I look at myself or see myself, which does sometimes include a mirror unless I’m staring at myself in the reflection of a lake like it’s a music video from the 80s (not staring at myself in a mirror, which is weird) I see imperfection. I want to be better than that. So I hate myself just a little bit all the time.

Edit: let me be clear. This is not a healthy way to view oneself. I do not claim it to be, nor do I encourage others to view themselves through the same lens. I’m just explaining why I work out on vacations.
