    SCRIPT de la video :
    "I'm too weak,
    Too slow
    too big
    I ate too much for breakfast
    I've got a headache
    It's raining
    My dog is sick
    I can't right now
    I'm not inspired
    Makes me smell bad
    I'm allergic to stuff
    I'm fat, I'm thin
    It's too hot
    I'm not right
    I've got shin splints* (this is when you run on hard surfaces too much
    and your shins hurt from all the impact, it's very common)
    A headache
    I'm distracted
    I'm exerting myself too much
    I'd love to really, but I can't, I just can't
    My favorite show was on
    I've got a case of the Mondays, the Tuesdays, the Wednesdays
    I don't wanna (want to) do this
    I wanna (want to) do something else
    After New Years
    Next Week
    Might make a mistake
    I've got homework
    I feel bloated
    I've got gas
    I've got a hot date
    My coach hates me
    My mom won't let me
    I bruise easily
    It's too dark
    Too cold
    My blister hurts
    This is dangerous
    Ugh
    Sorry, I don't have a bike
    I didn't get enough sleep
    My tummy hurts
    It's not in my genes
    I don't wanna (want to) look all tired out
    I need a better coach
    I don't like getting tackled
    I have a stomachache
    I'm not the athletic type
    I don't wanna (want to) get sweaty
    I have better things to do
    I don't want to slow you down
    Do I have to do this?
    As soon as I get a promotion
    I think I'll sit this one out
    And my feet hurt."
