Sorry everyone, I’m certainly going.
That’s an 18km hike at 5:00.
0500 hours you mean.
No, at 5:00h
Why are you putting a 0 in front of that? Do you also say 0100€?
While that might look ridiculous, I have to confess I date food as 06/11. I would write 5:00 but I do this with dates, for some reason.
If you’re in the military, maybe.
Who have you been talking to?
No, 5:00 minutes, she best be getting ready!
Can confirm.
source: hiked across Haleakala crater on Maui. I mean, the otherworldly moonscape-like terrain is awesome, but no more awesome than one or two miles of it would have been.
Yea the road is great there and there are many in-and-out hikes along it that still add up to a full day.
Your summary is making me feel like less of a lazy-ass for doing it that way instead of the proper way like you did lol.
lol when we got back somebody asked my friend how it was and he just said, “Long fuckin’ walk.”
My last date was like this, lol. We were dancing, both of us not being much into it so I was like: “Wanna go out for a walk?”
We then walked all the way up a hill that had a small church on top of and with a great view. I showed her from there where I grew up, where I studied, etc.
It was a great date but sadly it was her last day on the island and the spark only light up that afternoon.
You leave that ho alone! She agreed to go on a date with me!
“She did whaaaaaaaat!?” *chairs flying*
A 12-mile hike? Starting Sat. 5 a.m.? With this beautiful chick? Pretty sure my control center is casting mind-controlling magic to make this happen!
This is why Guess Culture is a thing.
Is it ok if I bring my camera kit with? (So I have a legitimate reason to take a break every few km?)
Sorry, but she has veto power:
Unfortunately, the veto kicks in 2/3 of the way through the trip, in the form of a collapsing, panic attack induced info dump about agoraphobia.
This is why it’s important to have a weekday off. A 12 mile hike sounds awesome, just not on a Saturday when it’s packed.
That’s why you start at five
Yeah, I’m incredibly fortunate that I don’t actively take work on Mondays, and it’s fantastic. Sunday nights, folks are getting the blues, and I know that Monday is my day to either catch up on work, go on long runs, putz around the house, whatever. I absolutely do not take for granted my Mondays. And being able to go somewhere that’s otherwise busy is great on Monday.
Packed? Y’all hike where there are other humans?! I’m always a bit taken aback when I see someone on the trail, and most places I go, I’d shit kittens if I saw a live human.
I’m sure once she’s on the hike the brain control center will come around. I’ve always said I love being up early, but I hate getting up early. 12 miles is a fair bit though hah.
I worked a 16-hour shift at Lowe’s, half in the outdoor area, 12-miles. I think most people would straight die.
I’d be OK with the distance, but I would definitely die from working in customer service for 16 hours haha.
That sounds pretty great actually!
Wow!!! You sound like the woooooooorst!!!
I’m in this comics and I don’t like it.
Me too. I’m frame 1 and 4.
Genuinely surprised how many 5 am hikers there are.
If you go into the mountains, you generally want to start early.
Sunrise makes a pretty memorable hike unforgettable.
If it’s gonna be unbearably hot in the afternoon, it’s best to start before dawn. Just before dawn is the best time for fishing too.
Also it gives you time to shower before work.
With a bit of effort they can be home at noon so what’s the fuzz about?
I just say no and then they go ok and everything is fine
Yeah, when I was younger I think I felt weird about saying no. Now, I probably say it a bit too much, but whatever!
