I'm still growing. lI wouldn't be suprised if I got to Audie's prestigious height.

I (at last) found a calculator which calculates metres into feet and inches (as opposed to only inches or only feet) and I proudly present that I am 6 feet and 3 2/10 inches. That's 1.91 metres. I'm thirteen.






Sorry, I just always brag about that...

Joking aside, you're tall for a 13-year-old. I know an 11-year-old that is bigger than most adults.

Nah, I just decided to name the seal in my avatar Barbarossa because it sounded like a badass name for a fluffy seal pup.

Didn't do much today... resting my shinsplints and foot cramps.

@dwarf- Oh yeah? well I'm 5 feet and 2 inches.

Where'd you find the calculator? It sounds like a nice thing to have.

You can program it onto a graphing calculator. I don't know how, but I know that you can.

Not that bad.

I'm just around ~43 kgs.

Also,  I walked ~3 miles today.

not that great, but it felt better than doing nothing with shinsplints.

Shin-splints sound painful.

I should get out and walk today. I got up early today--early on Sunday!--to garden, and it snowed buckets. Then it hailed. Now it's dark outside. Ugh. I'm basically ready to plant-only about 1 solid day's work on the soil and I'll be done with that part, and I've still got 4-6 seed packets that can go into the ground. It's frustrating, being able to look at the garden, but not being able to work on it.

In better news, it looks like I've fixed the dishwasher (fingers crossed), so I can get the house back in shape today.

I'll probably force myself to get *some* exercise, beyond cleaning, but I'm not really feeling like doing much of anything, though.

I wish spring would get here already. I need the sun.
I'm pretty sure I'm pretty badly depressed (runs in my family), and lack of sunlight isn't helping much, even though I've been getting larger doses of it, with the work I have been able to do, outside.

Still doesn't seem like enough...cleaning should help though. Everything seems to be conspiring together to be damn frustrating, lately.

Yup. you get it from the impact of your foot hitting the ground over and over again, and it's basically your shin muscles attempting to detach from your bones.

hurts.

on another note, I really can't wait for spring to actually come either.

I prefer this one. It converses metres into feet and inches and fractions of inches. Something like 5.3257... feet doesn't help much as inches and feet are not decimal. AFAIK 12 inches are 1 foot.

Ouch, i remember shin-splints from cross country season. Not fun. Anywho I think I'm gonna start posting my workouts in here. My brother is keeping track of my miles but I find it's more of a motivation to not stop if I put it somewhere public.
Yesterday I ran 6 miles and did 4 100m sprints.
EDIT: Ran 3 miles-not enough time for much else right now.

The logistical problems dealing with a private space colony are at least as bad as dealing with the zombies.

Yeesh, 5'4 and 112 lbs? If I was spun into my component parts in a centrifuge and the matter used to build Strife26s they could make two of you, with enough left to make a spare head for Gary Coleman.

5'9, 240 here. Even with a strict diet, an 8-10 hour/day job loading trucks and a 45 minute daily workout I was only able to get down to 220 at my lightest. I've since slipped due to frustration.
