Here's how the conversation went:
"Did you get a letter in high school?"
"I think I got a letter for band."
"Band? I meant for a sport?"
"Well, the only sport I did was Ski Team. But I don't think I got a letter."
"But, did you have a Letter Jacket?"
"Nope. I didn't have a letter jacket."
(I did NOT tell her that there was no way in heck that I would have worn a letter jacket in high school. I was way too "alternative" and cool for that nonsense.)
Then she said, "I want to letter in track so I can get a Letter Jacket."
OK then. I'm thrilled that she's thinking ahead like that. I'm excited that she wants to stick with track and run like nobody's business. It's something I never would have done and I'm thrilled she wants to.
So what if the motivation seems to be fashion rather than actual fitness. Whatever works is OK by me!
