I would venture a guess that Kacie doesn't blog about the training sessions that totally bite, but I do know what you mean!

I think that having a coach could be fun if you have the right one. And finding that right one might not be so easy. That's why I hesitate - I fear throwing away a ton of money on something that may not work out due to my other commitments. At least if I'm the one setting up the plan, there is less guilt and cost involved.
