Despite an active involvement in sports for most of my life, I’ve been allergic to exercise. I’ve never liked the act of physical activity without some sort of inherent objective to work towards. I’ll run up and down a basketball court all day in pursuit of a win, but running on a treadmill usually wears out its welcome very quickly.
For the few times that I was disciplined enough to stick with it, I had to find a goal beyond the immediate activity at hand.
