 so not a movie i'd ever watch unless i was very drunk.

Anyway about 2 hours at the gym today.  6 miles collectively on tread and bike maintaining target heart rate for 30 of the 40 minutes. Full body workout including the hateful lunges which compared to the glute workout is stinky easy. I hate the glute press/push whatever you call it.  15 minutes

How long does it take to walk 6km??

at my pace, which is much slower than the treadmill, it took me about 40 or 50 minutes.

I wasn't rushing :-)

I'd so for serious come chill at the monastery. Maybe hang with Mafia Monk and he can hook me up with some bling.

I'd love to help for a week, spending life as a monk. I'm not sure what all is involved, but talk about a once in a lifetime experience.

It depends on what type of Buddhism you go with. The one Garth was with, Theravada / Hinayana, considers themselves the most pure form. It's very strict. I lean more to the Tibetan Buddhism.

You should be able to find a local temple/monastery to see what they offer. Some offer retreats for short periods of time.

I would consider some time in the nunnery, but I'm not sure if it would be in Thailand.
