which is to say, i'm getting seriously worried about my lack of fitness.
in a somewhat unexpected move, i'm ignoring my concerns for my spinal health and choosing instead to look at it as a glass-half-full situation. yes, some of my spinal cartilage has gone the way of death star 1.0,
but i don't have to sit indoors, getting pale and sad because the doctor said i can't be a figure skater or dancer. (fuck that attitude, amiright?)so to remedy my hopelessness, i'm going to apply myself to The Annette Challenge. mostly it consists of running and pilates, with a little strength training and A LOT of physical therapy to get my not-so-hot body into pre-injury shape.
i'm also hoping that The Annette Challenge will help motivate me psychologically; i need to get my book off the ground, and although i've been writing every day, i'm gonna need to be a tough cookie to go around peddling it to publishers once it's done. blergh. additionally, i've had a few hard mental knocks lately that i wouldn't mind forgetting with some well-deserved personal success.
if you want to join The Annette Challenge, there are no membership fees, rules, or qualifications. i can email you my plan, and then you can do whatever the hell you want. as long as you're happier after ten weeks than you were when you started, you win!
