how much time do you spend outside?[views:15525][posts:83]______________________________ [Aug 5,2009 11:02pm - BSV ""] just curious. i usually hike a few miles a week. fish. play golf. work outside. maybe 20 hours or so if i'm lucky with a 5 day work week. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 11:05pm - MillenialKingdom ""] I biked 25 miles yesterday for the hell of it. I guess I like being outside. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 11:05pm - dertoxia ""] i don't have a garage so i have to go outside to get in my car |
| _____________________________ [Aug 5,2009 11:12pm - GUY ""] prob around 20-25 i walk to work everyrday so thats an extra hour 5 days a week. plus softball on mondays. and i got a big driveway that my boys and i are always in. not much hiking, fishing, or swimming but alot of outside time |

| ____________________________________ [Aug 5,2009 11:38pm - arilliusbm ""] not enough. I used to be outside nearly 24/7 when I was a kid. I usually leave for work around 7:20ish, then get back from work around 7 each night. I like to spend more time outside on the weekends |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 12:24am - the_reverend ""] not enough. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 12:57am - FlightlessBird ""] the_reverend said:not enough. Echoed. Meh. I need to get on it. I'm always told it's harder to get physically active as you get older. SM=0 |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 1:01am - FuckIsMySignature ""] whenever i'm not inside. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 1:02am - FuckIsMySignature ""] BSV said: play golf. dude we need a metal golf day. i try to get out at least once a week. |
| _____________________________ [Aug 6,2009 7:16am - Yeti ""] not nearly as much as i want. i walk to and from the train stations so i put in at least 3 miles a day, but its not recreational. not having a car makes my woods walking practically non-existent, which is a travesty. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 7:51am - corpus_nli ""] i work two jobs right now and i am going to school to get my masters. i dont spend to much time outside now--( skip school once in a while if the surf is ripping in hull) but my theory is that if i bust my ass these next few years..i will put myself in a position make where i can sustain excellent money while working minimal hours, thereby allowing me to spend a majority of my time surfing or hiking and staying as mellow as possible. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 8:02am - MikeOv ""] Weekends, I usually go wandering through the woods. It's what I have to look forward to all week. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 8:06am - ouchdrummer ""] unfortunately i live in southie now, so there aren't really any "forests" to speak of. I, like the rest of you, grew up exploring the woods. I walk between 7 and 10 miles a day between walking to and from work, between all my clients offices. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 8:07am - reimroc ""] a few hours a week. i'm usually sitting behind a computer for work and then i'm sitting behind a computer to play vidya gaymes. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 8:17am - SkinSandwich ""] What is this outside that you speak of? |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 10:05am - Strep_Cunt ""] Not much, but trying to make it more. I run my dog a half hour everyday in the woods, that's an awesome time. Helps clear my mind of negativity. I'll smoke some shisha on my porch (which is open air) but other than that, it's all indoors. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 10:08am - Conservationist ""] Today, I will spend zero time outside, if I'm lucky. In winter, about 30+ hours a week, and by "outside" I mean areas where there are more trees than humans. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 10:10am - dreadkill ""] i don't spend enough time outside. i've only gone on a few walks through the woods this summer and haven't spent any time by the sea yet. :( |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 10:12am - dreadkill ""] i'm going to maine in a couple weeks to spend the weekend exploring acadia national park and camden hills state park. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 10:23am - the_reverend ""] haha, I live by the sea. it rules. I would be there at 7pm tonight if my dog wasn't injured. Acadia rules. (classic aaron pepelis here) |

| _________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 10:33am - darkwor ""] between working in a cold office all day, a dank bandroom, and living in a worcester 3-decker farm, i don't get out much. but last week i still managed to really destroy mt. monadnock, and got my regular purgatory area visit in. i'll finally be getting a bike this weekend and driving my car around the city a lot less. hopefully i can get my ass up early enough to regularly ride my bike to work. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 10:34am - darkwor ""] also, blazing outside is one of life's greatest things. |
| ______________________________ [Aug 6,2009 10:38am - Yeti ""] so much better than sitting on a couch. if you go on a quiet day to Purgatory those trails behind it lead to some killer toking spots. Douglas State Park is the same, blazing in that swampy part is awesome. |

Douglas State Park is the same, blazing in that swampy part is awesome. the "sofa rock" down the stream at the pond. and douglas state park is killer. the swamp part with all the moss surfaces and windswept trees make me think elves and fairies are going to pop out of nowhere. |

| ______________________________ [Aug 6,2009 12:50pm - Yeti ""] i found an awesome smoking spot behind the Auburn Sportsman's Club, you go way deep behind the sandpits and there is this MASSIVE tree, easily 500 years old. i've never seen anything like it in this area. there is evidence of some kind of old town, its a completely overgrown forest now, but there are trails and stone walls and shit like that. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 12:51pm - darkwor ""] SICK i might check that place out. |
| ______________________________ [Aug 6,2009 12:53pm - Yeti ""] if you do let me know, you probably won't find it without me, i've been dying to go there, i haven't been in like a year. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 2:05pm - xitsdoomsdayx ""] Not much at all seeing i just got out of jail |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 2:14pm - the_reverend ""] you think you would be spending more time outside. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 6,2009 2:20pm - massoftwoslits ""] I hang out in the woods whenever possible to get away from my children and drunk husband... On mai horsh. Sometimes, I bring my son with me. |

| ______________________________ [Aug 10,2009 10:06am - pam ""] Haha, no. We'll upgrade to a house, thanks. Working on cleaning up our credit now and saving. Long way off, but we'll get there. Have I known you for 10 years now? Fuck I'm old. I've been in school for 4 years. It took me 3 to get my AA (had to do a couple semesters part-time and I did extra classes), working on my BA in Photography now. I still have 2 more years to go because of the major switch when I transferred. FML. |
