Work out Thursday, Sep 22, 2005 3:19 pm

I wish I had an urge to work out (the thing one does for cardiovascular exercise, not weight-lifting).  I get the urge every once in a while, but I feel like I've exhausted all my options.  I'm not really a fan of doing something for the sole purpose of a workout.  Like running or biking.  If there's a purpose in mind, these activities might be a little more appealing.  If I ran with a destination in mind and without the need to run back, it might be a little more fulfilling.  Or if I biked because that's the only way I could get from one place to another, I might enjoy it (but I'm sure I would quickly hate it after the first rainstorm or bitterly cold day).  I enjoyed scaling a small mountain a few weekends ago.  I had about 30 lbs on my back and I climbed up a rock-covered "mountain" (a loosely-used term because it wasn't a mountain in the Rockies sense of the word).  But there aren't too many mountains in close proximity to me; they require a good half-hour drive.  So altogether, it would take about 2 hours to get a workout.  I would play sports like basketball, but for whatever reason, basketball is entirely associated with a certain group of people.  I absolutely don't fit into that group of people, so I don't really like playing basketball in public.  [Isn't it weird that certain sports are associated with certain groups of people?  Basketball - thugs.  Frisbee - hippies.  Skiing - rich people.]  Everyone says that walking's healthy.  I don't know about that.  It's just too easy.  But it's all I have for now, so I guess I'm sticking with it.
