Task 2: Exercise to Relax
Script¹
Wendy: What a day…a walk on the beach, bodysurfing, an hour of pumping iron, followed by a nice long jog. Maybe we can finish off with a little badminton this evening.
Howard: Groan².
Wendy: So far this week, we’ve played beach volleyball, gone hiking, gone swimming, and ridden mountain bikes. Don’t you feel better in mind and body than when we arrived here?
Howard: To tell the truth, I ache all over. My muscles are complaining that they’re being mistreated.
Wendy: Oh, now, admit it: This is the way to get the most out of life. This is how Nature intended us to live. I’ll bet³ you’d be exercising even if I weren’t here.
Howard: Not a chance. Whenever I feel the urge to exercise, I lie and wait for the feeling to pass. I prefer sitting around fishing or resting on a comfortable chair and watching the grass grow or stretching out on the beach while the sun slowly sets.
Wendy: You’re a lazy lump⁴. Before long you’ll be fat and weak and short of breath. If you think we had a big workout this week, just wait till next week. We’re going rafting, and after that, I want to go camping and mountain climbing.
Howard: Know what you are? You’re fitness⁵ freak. You’re hooked⁶ on exercise.
Wendy:  Well, that may be true. But I’ll make a deal with you. If you promise to go camping with me next week, we’ll go to a movie this weekend.
Howard: Wonderful. Just what I was waiting to hear. It sounds like a great chance to relax. Maybe someday I can even help you break free from that horrible fitness habit.
Wendy: That’ll be the day!
