I don't/can't just go to the bar and fuck randoms . . . Since the average number of sexual partners for a man in his lifetime is 7, I think sleeping with 10 different people in your 20s is reasonable.

Lower middle class family.
Worked out in hs, got me the weight lifting and girls one. Got an internship after freshman year by networking my ass off got me enough money to go to the sporting event.
You got such a high-paying internship after your freshman year that you were able to attend "several" of the Super Bowl, World Series, Olympics and World Cup?
It's cool . . . I don't know that it's advisable to settle down in your 20s . . . think about it, you have your 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s to be with one woman.
I've got most of my career/academic stuff on lock (assuming biglaw doesn't collapse).

That's true. I'm mainly focusing on career shit right now and haven't thought about much else long-term. I'm at a non-target and trying to get into finance in this shit economy, so it's rough.
I went to a regional private school for undergrad, so I know next to nothing about finance . . . I never have respected finance people though . . . it seemed/seems that no one really knows what they're doing/can predict the market with any accuracy and you have enough people that try, some are bound to get lucky and hit it right.

Lucky. I'm at a T50 public, no one recruits here, but we used to send a handful to wall st every year....but now it's all collapsing, but I still have some badass qualifications, so I'm hoping something comes through.

My goals wouldn't involve events like that. things like the super bowl or the running of the bulls are probably underwhelming. I guess I'd focus on long-term goals. eg, write a book, develop lasting friendships, etc.

Yeah, connecting with aging parents is a good goal. I imagine that once you start your own family it's even harder to find quality time to spend with your folks

bench isn't really all that relevant to how well someone can fight. Your goal should be 225 lbs. It won't be too hard to get there with some effort even with your running background.
150 3x projects pretty close to 180, btw. I'd say 165-180 max.
I admit that I'm too much of a pussy to instigate a non-sanctioned fight. Too much of a risk of them using a weapon, one of us taking it too far, one of us getting arrested. I can't fuck up my life like that.

almost everything on a bucket list requires discipline and almost everything requires less discipline than what is required to run a marathon under 4 hrs (for most people). As a runner, you might be able to run a marathon under 4 hrs with month of training. Most can't.

I'm in decent shape (recently ran a sub 20:00 5k) and sincerely believe if I went out tomorrow, I could gut out a marathon in around 4:00.
I base this belief on my friend who is in slightly better shape than me (but, I'm a better runner, as in I'd win if we were both in peak shape) ran a marathon without specifically training for it. . . he ran it in 3:50. Granted, his joints were dead the next few days, but he did it.

I guess since I'm turning 29 in May, I'll have to make this a bucket list for my 30s.
1) Meet a good guy, get married and stay that way.
2) Run a sub-3 hour marathon (I currently run 3:04 so it's not at all a stretch). I suppose if I have 10 years to do it I'll just throw it out there and say I'd like to break 2:48 and qualify for U.S Olympic Trials, which would certainly make me the prestige and might help with #1.
3) Write a book (I have a few ideas)
4) Start a business (I have a few ideas)
5) Start re-discovering hobbies that I did in my youth, but discarded along the way (swimming, violin, equestrian events)
6) Be a better daughter and get to know my parents more in their old age despite how I often think we have nothing in common. Making a point to go home more will be a large part of this.
7) Stop being so talkative and verbal with my opinions about people and things (which might help with #1, according to my mother).
8) Stop being so hard on myself when I do something that requires me to later apologize
9) Learn how to grill as well as my dad does
10) Learn more about my family's history and the stories of my grandparents on both sides.
11) Travel to certain places that I find interesting (Burma, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, Oman, Galapagos Islands, Antarctica).
