Unit 6 Wit and fit
Listening to the world
F: Often it’s hard to find a time to exercise when you have a full-time job. Lots of my friends
belong to gyms but I prefer to go running outside to keep fit. How about you? What do you do
to keep fit?
M1 = Man 1, etc.; W1 = Woman 1, etc.
M1: Uh … I do quite a few things actually. Um, I go to the gym quite regularly. I go for runs. Er,
I’m also a little bit involved in the sport of rowing. So, I’m down there quite a bit. I coach,
actually coach rowing as well.
W1: I have three children, and I work full-time. And I don’t have a lot of time to do any extra
organized exercise.
W2: Er, the main thing I do is I do practice yoga, that incorporates different positions as well as
meditation, and different breathing techniques.
M2: Usually, I ride my bike, like I got here. And I go to the gym more or less three to four times a
week. And I also watch what I eat.
W3: I dance, and I do yoga – and I just try to be as active as possible – enjoy nature also.
M3: I try and walk everywhere because, um, I don’t really enjoy running.
W4: I have quite a hectic lifestyle as a musician but I do try to keep fit – going to the gym, yoga
classes, Pilates classes, er, sometimes running, and generally keeping active.
W5: I’m a police officer, so I have quite an active job. Um, I can spend 8 or 12 hours doing foot
patrol, um, walking round the streets of London so I suppose that keeps me quite fit.
F: What other things would you like to do to keep fit?
M1: I’d love to get involved with some team sports. I really enjoy, sort of, the team aspect of sport.
Er, particularly I think I’d like to get into hockey.
W1: I’d quite like to learn how to play tennis properly. Er, it’s probably one of the only sports that

During my college orientation week, a serious looking woman went up to me, and without smiling, said, “You’re tall. I need you.” She handed me a flier, turned and walked away. Confused, I skimmed the flier and realized it was for crew try-outs. Growing up in Nebraska, a land-locked state, I was slightly puzzled. But I thought, why not. So I joined the team, and I immediately became fond of the sport and my team.Part ATextEarlier this week, I got together with my old crew team during spring break training, but this time as a supportivemember. Over lunch, I asked the team how college sportsadded to their overall college experience. Here’s what they said:Part ATextYou hear about the Freshman 15 and you’re probably already worrying about it. Taking part in college sports can be the effective way to prevent the infamous Freshman 15. Sophomore Sarah remarked, “I was relatively concerned about the Freshman 15. It always sounded so difficult and needed a lot of physical effort. But once I joined the crew team, the term the Freshman 15 never crossed my mind again.” You are exercising on a regular basis, plus you must eat right and get regular sleep to keep up with your training, which all together, are important things to prevent the Freshman 15.Part ATextSenior basketball player Amanda said, “With college sports, you have three schedules that rule your time: academic, athletic, and social.” I will not lie to you, being on a college team is time consuming and at times stressful.

Upon joining a college athletic team, you areimmediately welcomed into a circle of friends. Cleo, 21, acollege junior, explained, “I cannot imagine college without my team. They challenge me on a daily basis, and they push me to be my best on and off the water.” Having a built-in support and motivational system is also a definite plus of being a teammember.Part ATextAside from a diploma, the one thing of value that I walked away from college with was the experience. As you will find out, college is all about new experiences. Cleo said it best with, “Why not join a sport team. What’s the downside?”So, are you ready to play a sport in college?
