How easy we judge people next to (or not next to). Everything else is easy, except for your own. We then seek a solution to others. And how hard it is to manage what you have inside. Many times we idealize specific people, as if they were all right. And how little we know about what they have inside, other than the image.

To me, the sporty girls were sending me as a child. I had idealized them. I thought that to be an athlete you had to follow a certain stereotype: eating healthy (without chocolate), not being very heavy and moving with beautiful hair and running well. I was out of that canon. I didn't have good hair, I had a lot of weight and I was clumsy when I was running. I imagined how awkward it was, in elementary school, when I was doing physical education, I threw the fences. I didn't really like physical education that we were taught at school. Almost all the games that were made were related to the race, and I didn't get along with it. We were taught many games related to endurance and none to work force.

I felt like I couldn't do what they were teaching us, and I got into my head that I couldn't be an athlete. But it wasn't just me, my environment and especially my family thought the same thing. Maybe because I was a little clumsy, maybe also because I had more weight than I did. But life goes around a thousand laps, and believe that, today, I have a few days without doing sport.

I've learned a lot. The first is that there are a thousand types of sports, and the key is in the pursuit of taste. That shame should be set aside (although the tents have always danced the first times). We all have the first times, and no one has been born learned here. I've learned that you don't have to idealize. That we all have our problems here, that everyone has their own problems and that it is necessary to ask for help (even if it seems difficult). I have learned that I can be an athlete and that all stereotypes can be broken. And you don't have to have good hair to run.

Although theory seems simple, practice is difficult. So even though I have four txapelas to lift stones in Euskal Herria, it's hard for me to say that I'm an athlete. But I taught Karmele as a little boy that, although he doesn't believe himself to be a little boy, he's capable of many things he proposes himself.
