I feel so out of place in a weight room--it's incredibly alien with all those shiny chrome torture machines and huge buffalo men grunting all over the place. All I've ever done is run, and the idea of willingly submitting to the weight room is just... crazy. That said, I would TOTALLY hire a personal trainer--in fact, it's on my 101 things to do list. I know that I'd need a pretty special (patient, encouraging, non-intimidating) person, so I'm putting off the search until my life is more stable, but I'll definitely do it one day. I also think I'd really prefer a woman. Don't know why, but I feel like I'd be more at ease. Part of the reason I haven’t done it yet is that I have total gym-phobia.
