A sample workout regimen for the novice boxer
Today's workout:
Stretching
Ten minutes of jumprope
Shadow-boxing, six rounds
Hope to get coach's attention for session on mitts
Fail to get coach's attention for session on mitts
Shadow boxing, three more rounds
Loose a dollar in the sport drink machine in front of bemused weighlifters
Shadow boxing, three more rounds
Chat with that girl who's really, really good
Realize that the gym's gonna close in half an hour
Double end bag for two rounds
(Coach is really involved in this deep conversation with someone you've never seen before)
Heavy bag for three rounds
The radio has stopped playing; wonder when that happened
Pack up
Notice that the conversation is taking place over an open Bible
Wave from the door and leave
