In certain fields, I like training more than I like fighting.
While in London, I took some sport classes, various things, mostly fitness and aerobics.
In one of them, it was about boxing.
Initially, I thought we would do some fights, but I discovered that we mostly did training for an event that never occurred.
But I liked those pieces of training a lot, I think they helped me.
Similarly, in some classes I took some theatrical lessons and in others we also put on a play. I liked the preparation more than the show itself.
In boxing, training requires you do be more fit. To me, that’s the aim itself, not winning a fight.
In preparing for a theatrical spectacle, I get to do lots of things which I enjoy, while the play itself is mostly stress.
It’s like training for a marathon vs. running for a marathon. Training does all the good stuff for you (health, fitness, all is good), while the marathon race itself might not actually be that good for you.
People focus on running a marathon, but training for a marathon might be the better solution.
