SHE'S A MANIAC

I just referred to myself as a manic in a facebook post to someone when talking about my health, fitness and running. I looked up the definition of maniac on dictionary.com.

1. a raving or violently insane person; lunatic.

2. any intemperate or overly zealous or enthusiastic person

When it comes to my health, fitness and running, I guess you could say I am a raving person, perhaps even a bit of a lunatic. I wouldn't liken myself to a violently insane person, although I'm sure there are some who may disagree...

Intemperate? Hmmm? I guess that depends on your definition of intemperate...

Overly zealous? Sure. I like that.

Enthusiastic. Yep. Like that one. Someone recently told me that I was not obnoxious about my health, fitness and running....that I was enthusiastic. That I was encouraging and enthusiastic.

So, was I correct in referring to myself as a maniac when it comes to my health, fitness and running?

Darn tootin' I was...
