Hobbies

[toma]

So...i don't know if this is already posted, wasn't on the first 4 pages so...

what are your hobbies?

currently i'm training to ride in the BP MS150, bicycle ride from Houston to Austin Texas
also started Crossfit not too long ago and i'll be starting to run as well, long term goal is to do an IronMan before i'm 35 haha, i fly Model Helicopters...well the small ones for now cause a gas powered one cost as much as my bicycle and i'd rather buy a new bicycle. I also go kart at an indoor track.

For you runners, anyone got any pointers to a regiment and is there a break in time for running shoes?

Lmfa brent. My hobbies are gaming, collecting elephant stuff (I love anything elephant..I have a taTtoo on my foot that I adore!), music (I guess that's a hobby..I love trance and so I collect it musically), and animal rescue.

oh i forgot music i am an idiot but i love playing my cello and listening to opera (not a joke lol) and i love all types of music but country i love david bowie radio head muse and others music is a big part of my life

i ran cross country in high school. all shoes are different and im sure any shoe would be properly broken in within two and a half weeks if you run every day. as for a regiment and a more precise break in period to your specific shoe, google should help.

my hobbies as of late are hard driving and safe sex.

I do a lot of tinkering with adobe after effects and stuff, trying out special effects

I'm a photography nut. I got a canon rebel xt and I'm still getting used to my new Nikon d3100 (one of the first DSLR cameras to take 1080i video at 24 fps.. most others have a shitty frame rate)

I do stencil/spray paint art:

I'd love to get into film but I really need to get into a film program at a university and I don't have the time right now because work is consuming my life. Hence why I tinker at home with after effects. But since last year I've been taking night classes at my local county cable access. I recently got certified as a tv studio technician and now I'm taking the director's class. I want to eventually start a show where I show music videos from rock/hip-hip/electronic/etc artists from the DC/Baltimore metro area and then have a live studio performance at the end of each show. I'll probably be able to actually start on it this summer, so if anyone knows any good MD/VA/DC area bands that need some exposure, let me know.

.. All this while working 50-60 hours a week as a web/db programmer

BLEH!!!!!

Pooping, sex, music, gaming, pooping, sex, smoking, drinking, sex, drinking, gaming, eating, sex, work out, pooping, sex, drinking, working out.

btw for the running then, stay away from treadmills and try to run with the tips of your toes. When you land on your heels you lock your knees for s split second halting all blood flow to your lower leg for like a millisecond. Surprisingly that effects run times, run speeds, and endurance.

^ wut no time for sleep?

lol and thanks for the running tips, i f'd up my knees the last time i ran, cause i landed on my heels and couldn't bike for a week.

[elpolloloco]

Try running more x country on dirt before hitting the pavement, for a couple weeks at least. Every couple of years I'll go a few months span where I'll start running again and my knees get a little MEH when I first start up again. Stay on dirt for a bit or final a local high school/college track that has a rubber surface.

Keep those knees up when you run too. Get those upper parts of your leg paralell to the ground when you're running. I ran X country in high school and we did TONS of form running exercises to force outselves to have good habits when running

I ran for a a bit in my mid twenties too and did a half marathon (took about 10 months to get in shape). When I first started up I was so out of shape but I was lucky I was in a remote area at the time with lots of hills and open grassy/dirty areas

[toma]

yeah there's a quatermile loop with a half mile trail from that to the high school near my house with a rubber surface track, thanks for the advice :) now to get my fat ass out there

[dice]

Music in all its forms, drunken shuffleboard, and hitting on women that are way out of my league just for the sport (its an art, really.)

I traded my ibanez for a fender last fall, I've been in kind of a blues kick. I put on my wife beater and shades, grab a bottle of bourbon and pretend I'm Samuel L Jackson in Black Snake Moan. Good fucking times.

[elpolloloco]

yea playing guitar usually involves coincides with whiskey drinking for me as well :)

I got an ibanez ACCOUSTIC-electric that I play like 2 months out of the year. Playing an accoustic that infrequently is murder on the fingers. I should get an electric

[Me Haha]

I'm a gamer. I have whittling stuff but it's too cold right now to whittle. I enjoy spending time with my girlfriend and other friends, but it happens rarely. Long walks when it's pouring cats and dogs is fun. I have a guitar, but i rarely play it mostly because i'm not quite sure how >.> I also enjoy photography, but rarely do. I also write; poetry and short stories, but don't write too often, i gotta be in the right mood most of the time and i need minimal distractions. But i mostly game.
