Freaking Out: Where to Begin? June 28, 2005
Posted by Amber D. Evans in : Reflections, Chico CA , add a commentWow.
There is more than enough info. out there about how to get
started. The tricky part is realizing how serious am I about this? Do I
want to try to compete? And with whom? My sister? Myself? No one? Ack!
What am I thinking about doing? Why do I want to do this? What gives?
Wow.

Do
I go it alone or try to train with Diana somehow? She's a strong
swimmer and in excellent shape overall. But she lives 1.5 hours away.
I'm pretty darn motivated on my own to exercise (have been doing it
consistently for the last two years), but what about those days when
weightlifting just seems too much?
Should I invite friends to do
this with me? I'm always hesitant to do that because conflicting
schedules always makes it tough to coordinate. It's too easy to flake
with friends, too. (Think: 12 oz. beer curls vs. 12 lb. bicep curls.
Which do you want to do?)
And how serious will others be? (Again, how serious am I?) Would we compete? I hate
competition simply because there's only one "winner" while everyone
else is a "loser." And I don't really think anyone likes being a loser.
So, generally, competition just really goes against my personal
beliefs, morals, and values.
Besides, who would I ask to join me? Who would actually be likely to do this? Josh? Jon? Berta? Paca? Athena? Robyn? James? Leah? Others?
