my girlfriend is training herself to run a 5k. apparently there's an app for that.
i'm sure you know about wwoof, but just in case, look it up.
we gave up our cars when we moved out here. i'm sure the transition isn't as easy everywhere you go (we are very centrally located and most of honolulu is dead flat), but it was a surprisingly simple matter to start biking everywhere. The only thing we have absolutely needed a car for was moving from our hotel to our apartment-we hired a taxi van.
Well I don't use confangled gadgetry or apps, but I'm well ready to run a 5k, and pretty ready for a 10k I just want to compete- aka, possibly try to win one. I don't know. We'll see how the 5k goes (easy) and from there perhaps it gets harder. I just have to pick up the pace a little.
I already bike everywhere in Iowa when there isn't ice on the ground, I love it, it's so much faster than walking. I gave up driving three years ago and I have no intention of going back.
Also, WWOOF is exactly what I'm talking about, I'm looking at a farm 12 miles out of town which would be perfect for biking daily providing the rain aint too bad, I am hoping to farm some days a week and cook others on rides into the city so that I might both pay my rent and educate myself while enjoying a secondary and convenient domicile at the farm.
Pretty much everyone we know that are also recent transplants had to leave their cars on the mainland and they're all going crazy without them. I can't imagine having to own a car anymore.
We really want to do WWOOF on the Big Island once I'm back in school and have summers off.
