Challange #2. GR 10 training begins So, I'm going to walk the GR10 (well that's the plan). This challange which will be the entire month of Dec (I don't like the fact there is a week rest between challanges) will focus on; Diet - Don't take office snacks (celibrations) in Dec. (I love office snacks) [CON+1 WIS+1] - Only have 2 coffee's before 1 one after lunch rest of the day drink water/tea [CON+1 WIS+1] - No beer, Soda, Jus in the house [CON+2 WIS+1] Fitness - wall/rock climb at least 1,5 hour a week each week [STR+2 STA +1] - 10km walk per week. (prefferably) [STA+3 DEX+1] Life - Get my diving tattoo (17 & 18th of Dec) [CHA +1] My Epic quests for this period; - Be able to rock climb a 5c (10XP) [STR+1] (start difficulty= 5B) - be able to rock climb 3 5b's in a row (20xp) [STR+1][STA+1] (start difficulty= 5A) - Don't take any office snacks in Dec (25 xp) (same as above [CON+2]) (I managed to do this in Nov, I want to continue in Dec) - Don't drink soda, jus & beer for 1 month (25 xp) (same as above [CON+2]) (I managed to do this in Nov, I want to continue in Dec) - Get my diving tattoo (17 & 18th of Dec) (75 xp) (same as above [CHA +1]) Info on the GR10; The GR 10 is a French GR footpath, or hiking trail, that runs the length of the Pyrenees Mountains. It roughly parallels the French-Spanish border on the French side. Those attempting the entire trail often choose to walk it from west to east, from Hendaye on the Bay of Biscay to Banyuls-sur-Mer on the Mediterranean Sea, but it can just as easily be traversed east to west. Hiking the entire route is estimated to take around 52 days for hikers who are in good shape and used to mountain hiking. Some stretches involve a lot of ascending and descending, including a few one-day sections that can climb and then descend 1,200 metres (3,900 ft), but the GR 10 is a hiking trail, and there is no actual mountain climbing involved. The trail covers a distance of 866 kilometres (538 mi), with 48,000 metres (157,000 ft) of ascent and given the coast to coast nature of the route the same descent.

Hello, Me and my buddy are looking into walking the GR10 (click for details) next summer. Summarized it's a 866 km (538 mi) with and Elevation change of 48,000M (157,000 ft) trail from the atlantic ocean to the Mediterranean Sea over the Pyrenees Mountains. my buddy already did 900 KM (approx 550mi) in the jungle of Venezuela. I.... did 40km in Luxembourg..... so obviously I'm not as trained I did do some alphines in Austria but more elevation then distance and max 1 or 2 mountains (which comes down to max 1 week), and it's been almost 2 years... So, I did see and read the thread about training for hiking. and I understand the concept of hiking with packed backpack to train for your hike. How ever, I live in The Netherlands... which is very flat... we have 0! mountains, I just read this artile; "No Mountains no problem" which has some tips, but I ain't a runner we take 40 to 50 days to walk the GR10. prox 20 km per day. easy pase, but EVERY DAY. I'm thinking, I'll walk as much as possible (at home and so flat), work out some gym/fitness stuff, we already go indoorwall climbing 3 hours a week so the legs should be ok for a bit but extra workout for endurance won't be bad. I plan to enter and finish a viking run Hill edition before we leave which should show me some progress and I'll need quite some training. Anyone else has tips to help me build endurance in 6 months for the GR10 ?

This will be my very first challange ever. I made 5 goals in 3 focus areas. I hope this will work Small question, should I make these into epic goals of my character? I decided to add attibutes to my goals. I like that aspect So I devided 15 points to my goals & epics. Diet - Don't take office snacks (celibrations) in Nov. (I love office snacks) [CON+3] - Only have 2 coffee's before 1 one after lunch rest of the day drink water/tea (that's 3 of the normal 7 to 10 which leads to Reduce caffeine consumption by 50%) [CON+2] Fitness - wall/rock climb at least 1 hour a week each week [STR+3] - 10 min walk every day. (prefferably outside) [STA+1] Life - Go to and Dance at! the halloween ball (5th of November) [CHA +1] [DEX+1] My Epic quests for this period; - Buy a 10 stipcard for the wall/rock climbing hall (40xp) [WIS+1] (I think that if I pay for it it's more likely I'll go) - Be able to rock climb a 5A (10XP) [STR+1] (start difficulty) - be able to rock climb 3 5A's in a row (20xp) [STR+1][STA+1] - Go to the halloweenball at the dance school and dance! at least 1 foxtrot (5th of Nov) (25xp) (same as above [CHA +1] [DEX+1]) (I'm not a very good dancer, but I like it... I'm shy when it comes to crowds and moving in a way I'm not comfy with. so I don't just want to go there, I want to dance at least a foxstrot (which is my best dance out of the lot)) - Don't take any office snacks in Nov (25 xp) (same as above [CON+3]) (I like to believe I eat fairly alright, lots of veggies and fruits, nuts etc. never snack at home (I never buy it) but at work... people "treat" a lot for good projects, birthdays, babies born, leaving etc. I snack at least 3 times a week in office. I aim to not snack at work in Nov.

Hello, I'm Némo, which American's can't pronounce so try "Nay-mo" and that's a girls name here (thanks Disney!) I signed up today, I was surfing around and got here as it seems to fit me a lot. I used to be a rugby player up to 3 years back, got VERY VERY ill lost +/- 17 kg of muscules ended up being +/- 55 kilo's with 168 cm. (that's 121,25 pounds on 5.5 feed) which is skinny but not bad. however I was weak and when I got better i gained a lot of weight. I'm now on 67.7 kilo's (+/- 150 pounds) I don't mind being 150 pounds.. but it's not muscles as before it's FAT and I feel the difference I don't wake up fit and I feel lazy and sleepy and crappy really. I want to change... but change is always difficult. if you didn't move for like 2,3 year after you moved heavily 6 days a week you get bored. I started playing A LOT of video games... and now.. I found this, how cool is that! anyway I'm here now, no plan plan so far, just looking around for the moment, I created my first challange here; looking into this accademy thing, but I find 150 dollar a lot.. so I need to over think this, I'm starting with this month of try-out. work out how the quests work etc. and then... when I get into the community more... I might acctually make a plan and make the change. When I stopped drinking (4,5 years back) I leared... "one day at the time" that how I'll approach this. I'll focus on one day at the time. and for the november challange... we'll see what happens next
