Dear Cardio, I loathe you

You want me to do you and I do but I really loathe you while I’m doing you. I know you’re good for me. It’s the only reason, trust me, the ONLY reason I do you.
And ever since I tore a meniscus in my left knee I loathe you even more because my knee aches while I do you and there are fewer things I can do to get you done. But I keep on doing you because you need done to keep me healthy and because you pay me back after I do you. I don’t know if it’s a fair trade or not. I give you what you want – to be done – and you give me better cardio health and a leaner body. I suppose it is.
Even so? No matter how seductive ANYone on earth tries to make you, no matter how many friends I have doing marathons, 5Ks, triathalons, Sean, Zumba, no matter how many infomercials try and put lipstick on the pig that you are? It’s been 30 years that I’ve been doing you – I’ve never liked you – I never will – but fear not — I’ll keep doing you because you’re that necessary evil that gives me only what you can give.
I hope you understand, it’s nothing personal, but you really suck!
Hugs,
David
