Torn

Visible to anyone in the world

I started doing a body combat class with a few friends.  It's not too busy, and not too complicated for the most part.  I've been twice.  My friend just sent me a message to check I'm still going tonight.  And I don't want to!  But I had promised myself that I wouldn't chicken out of this one.  The reason?  Well at the end of the class they make everyone jog round the room in a circle and high five the trainer.  I can't stand it.  It's ridiculous I know, but that bit at the end is all I can think of.  Maybe I should do one more week and see if it seems less awful...

Been very good today, studying hard.  Still finding it pretty boring but hopefully I'll be out of the neuron section by the end of the week.

I've agreed to run the Bristol half marathon in September as well.  I think that will be good.  Once we've started running anyway.  I'm not keen on the idea of waiting in a huge crowd.  I can comfortably run 10 miles, so 13 shouldn't be a problem, though I am usually knackered after the 10 miles.  We'll see.  It's another thing that I think I should try.  I annoy myself by not doing things like that just because I don't want to be around lots of strangers.  When I make the decision to say 'no' I feel a huge sense of relief, but then when everyone else has done whatever it may be, I feel regretful.

So I guess that answers my question about tonight.  I should go.  And try not to think about high fiving.

Hi clown everyone's different and finds what's best for them I know, but when I read your post I thought : why should you have to choose all or nothing; if I enjoyed all of it bar the end part, then when that part came I would just sit down, if anyone commented I would just say I like to end with a brief calming meditation moment smile
