どうも！全力20%のヒューです！
Hello!! It’s Hugh Yamada!!!!
今日は雨上がりの夕方に出発。
Today we started riding our bicycles right after the rain stopped and sunset started.
雨上がりのせいか、綺麗な空、雲、夕陽に恵まれ、いい景色でした。
Probably because of the after rain effects, the sky, clouds and sunset were really beautiful!
現在地はAdirondack Parkの出口手前。
道端にある家にテントできる場所がないかを尋ねると庭を貸してくださりました。
熊がこの地域に来るか確認したところ、滅多に来ないけど来るには来るとのこと。
ってなわけでガレージを貸してくださり、食べ物系(ゴミも全て)をまとめてガレージの室内に置かせていただけることに。
ありがとうございます！！！
Today we stopped right before going out of the Adirondack Park.
We went to a house right next to the road and asked them if they knew anywhere we could camp around there. They weren’t sure about campsites, however they suggested we camp on their property.
We asked them if they see bears around here. Their answer was they haven’t seen them for a while but bears do come here sometimes.
So they also suggested we use their garage to keep all the food we have (including trash).
Thank you so much!!!
Jayと夕飯の支度をしながら、僕らの「食」についてのお話。
While we had dinner at our campsite, we discussed one of the serious issues that we have, about our “meal.”
今のところこれらが僕らの主な食事。
トマトの缶詰とグリーンビーンの缶詰の中身を煮込ませながら、その汁を使って米を炊くというシンプルなもの。味は結構美味しい。
What we’ve been eating are Rice Roni, cooking with the soup from a can of diced tomatoes and a can of green beans. It’s pretty simple but tastes good!
Jay: 問題提起するつもりはないけど、飯足りないよね？運動してる量と考えても、普段の生活で必要とするカロリー量すら取れてない。このままだと体調崩すと思うんだ。
前に友人に聞いたんだけど、運動してるはずなのに筋肉が出来ない、むしろ身体がきつくなって行くのは何故だろうか？って。
そしたら「もっと飯を食え！食うもの食わないと筋肉を付けるどころか筋肉の回復にも繋がらない！」って言われたんだ。
だから俺ら、どうにかしてもっと大きな量の調理をキャンプ時でもできるようにする必要があると思う！
Jay: I’m not trying to bring up any trouble here, but don’t you think our meal is not enough? We are biking now and yet we are not even having as many calories as we should eat in our normal life. We probably will get sick if we keep on the way it is now.
A while I go I asked some people, “Why are my muscles are not growing even though I’m exercising? Instead somehow my muscles are getting more tense than before.” The answer for that was, “Eat a lot more. You need to eat a lot in order to build your muscles. You need to eat a lot just to heal your muscles too!”
So we should seriously think about how we can cook a bigger meal when we are camping out!
...なるほど。
一理ある。
僕の場合は、ニューヨークで働いていた頃は昼飯抜きでも1日頑張れたりしましたが、確かに体には良くない。
そして何より自転車移動の今は運動量は遥かに多い。
今大丈夫だからと言って、後々問題にならないとは限らない。
何より自転車筋を付けたい！！
... I see.
That makes sense. We do need to eat a lot more than what we are eating now.
Although, when I was working in New York, I was fine with not having lunch and that kind of thing, and I know that’s not a good thing for your health.
Plus, I’m on the bicycle now and using lot more energy for my body too.
I’m ok now, don’t mean I’m ok forever.
AND!!! I DO WANT to build my muscles for bicycling!!! I do!!
となると、
・より多くのカロリーを摂取出来る食材・料理
・筋力作りにも繋がる食材
・必要最低限の栄養が取れる食材
・軽くて持ち運びのしやすいキャンプ時に便利な食材
この4つの要素で今後リサーチしながら試してみる必要がありそうです。
And so we need to research and learn these 4 things.
- something that has a lot more calories!
- something that’s good for your muscles!
- something that can give us minimum and good nutrition that we need.
- something very light and easy to carry with us and good for camping.
And we’ll just have to try and test them out!!
身体の健康、心の健康を保つために！
For our bodily and mental health!!
アメリカS断まだまだ続きます。
Our Going S Adventure is still just beginning.
それではまた。
Well then.
