July was supposed to be awesome but I've been called fat TWICE in the last 72 hours.
Twice that I know of anyway.
Most recently: I was running around the Rosegarden like I usually do and a group of women were getting out of their car as I ran by. They said something in Spanish -- I'm not exactly sure what they said but I definitely heard "mira" which means "look" and "hippo" which isn't Spanish, but it isn't flattering either.
And then they all laughed.
And then I spent the rest of that lap trying to talk myself out of thinking I understood what they said but when I passed them again they all stared at me, I just couldn't stand the thought of the three more laps and passing them three more times of them staring at me and thinking that I was a hippo so I walked back to my car and took myself home.
I am disappointed in myself because normally, when I feel myself being judged while running, it's *easier* to keep running...because I'LL SHOW THEM!
But not today. For no particular reason. Grr.

how about just "hip" and leave it at that ?
ReplyDeleteI wish things like this didn't happen, especially as hard as you've worked the past few years. Of course, YOU were the one who was running, and I guess they were sitting on their asses?
ReplyDeleteScrew them.
ReplyDeleteI also understand the stopping and going home part. Some days you'll be off your game, but that's ok! Just don't let it get to you for too long and get back into your routine the next day. *hugs* :)
Fuck em.
ReplyDeleteI don't do situps at the gym so other people don't see my stomach fat roll. Judgment really gets a girl down:(
Forgive me for sounding like an after-school special, here. It's totally understandable that this made you feel crappy. But please remember that the behavior of these nasty jerks is all about THEM. Their rudeness, small-mindedness and ignorance. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU, my friend Elizabeth, who happens to be gorgeous, foxy and well-adjusted, inside and out.
ReplyDeleteoh EH - eff them.
ReplyDeleteIt's easy to be small when you have no self esteem, I'd wager there wasn't an ounce of integrity between the tres of them. Take heart as you've got more spark and commitment and fire in your little finger than they have combined.
