- Gym is going great, currently going at LEAST 3 of my 4 days off work and this week will be 4. Definitely seeing some physical changes to whole body, and slowly increasing weights in every area (besides bench press, i've always sucked at that)
- Mora knife came and has been added to bug out bag
- Streamlight is going to be a birthday present (12th June)
- Booking Snowdon trip probably tomorrow and hoping to complete this over my birthday weekend
- Mountain biking on forest trails is on hold for now as guy from work is recovering from op so that should happen in the next month
- Same guy from work is also planned to come on the canoeing course with me, will book at the end of May when i'm paid
- Re-read goal list today and spent some time on posture, smile and power poses
- Fashion item this month may have to take a back seat as i've got a ton of things to buy and car bills coming up

Re: 2016 Was A Revolutionary Year
Tallest mountain in England and Wales has been climbed!
Me and gf did it yesterday, drove down to Wales specifically as it was on my bucket list. GF did fucking awesome, weather was pretty crap at the top, heavy fog and light rain, visibility was about 50ft but she pulled through and we did it in about 3 hours. Very proud of her
Loved the experience and would definitely be up for Kilimanjaro at some point!
Also - finally got my Streamlight Protac 1L for my birthday, nice bit of kit that will make it into my pocket everyday. Another thing ticked off my 'to get' list.
2016 is really kicking ass!

Nice work, I loved doing Snowden and Snowdonia National Park is beautiful! Which route did you take up there?

Re: 2016 Was A Revolutionary Year
We took Llanberis both up and down. Was the longest route in terms of distance (9 miles there and back), but seemed to be the easiest/beginners trail. Figured it would be wise on my first outing to play it sensible, and with the fog so thick at the top I'm glad we did!Moiser wrote:Nice work, I loved doing Snowden and Snowdonia National Park is beautiful!

Re: 2016 Was A Revolutionary Year
I took the Ranger path up, because it was the closest path to my B&B. Tried to get myself down via part of the Snowden Horseshoe, it worked, but I was off the path crossing bogs and fields at the end, I got a little dirty.
Maybe we should look at doing something similar for the next TE meet?

Would like to tick off Ben Nevis at some point
But I think we meet up so rarely it would be cool to hit some bars and hit on some chicks!
Especially if we can get some newer guys along

Re: 2016 Was A Revolutionary Year
You're probably right, looking forward to it!
I loved Ben Nevis, awesome reason to get away for a weekend.

I could potentially do it next year around mid March- mid April if you fancy it again?
