Images from the gym never cease to amaze me

I wish I had a camera with me but I didn't. After a less than stellar 3,000 yds. in the pool, I went to run on the treadmill for 30 min. It was a quiet time of the day so I had a chance to people-watch all the characters at the gym. First, there was a lady who was working out with a wool sweater on. I'm sorry, but if you're wearing a wool sweater, you're not working out. You might as well go outside and walk. On to the next woman who was on the elliptical going through the motions while wearing clog type slippers......come on. Are you kidding me? The final one is my favorite....I'm laughing as I type just thinking about it. Another woman (I think I may have been the only guy in the gym at the time) was on the elliptical. Apparently she was afraid on contracting some deadly virus. Keep in mind that this gym as paper towels all around with spray bottles of disinfectant. Its a very clean gym. Apparently it was clean enough for her because she tore off two pieces of paper towels and put one in each hand and proceeded to move along on the machine with the paper towel in between her hands and the machine and if she needed to press a button, she would make sure to do it with the paper towel......too funny.

I wonder what I'll see today :)
