well... having this gym addiction lately.... so yeah.... even i'm shocked.... i never knew that i could actually enjoy running, albeit in a nice air conditioned room.... the first few times were.... stressful..... since i didn't know how to use the treadmill... hahaha... silly me.... but got the hang of it after fiddling around with the buttons... i started going during the hols... so i always go in the afternoon at say, 3pm.. when there is nobody at all.... (YAY!!! private gym!!!)
the only human i encountered during the hols was my primary school classmate... who recognised me like how i recognised him.... we just ignored each other.... i continued running... he continued lifting weights..... thank goodness for my phone+headphones+music....
went to the gym again today... well.. it was crowded.... two ang mohs doing weight training.... and this uncle in his early fifties was brisk walking on the treadmill....i took the other, less popular treadmill nearer to the window.... since people valued their privacy while running and would always choose the treadmill further from the window....
the uncle was annoying....
like SUPER ANNOYING!!!!
he did the up-down scan when i entered the gym... like erm... i'm going to the gym... so of course i'll look very unglamourous... my hair is pinned/ tied up... and i'm wearing a t-shirt and gym shorts.... and when i stepped on the treadmill and hit the settings and speed buttons... he leaned over to see.... and promptly adjusted his own treadmill settings too.... and when i started running... he leaned over to see my speed and increased his too....
ARGH!!!! stupid uncle...
but thanks to him... i ran 2.4km in 18 minutes!!! yay!!!!! okay... i know it's like... slow.... but... knowing me.... it's an achievement!!!! from 2.4km in nearly 30 minutes to 18 minutes!!!
okay.... i used to do a 2.4km walk instead of run.. but now i'm sort of addicted to running.... i think i sort of understand why people love running so much.... yay!!! will go run again soon!!!
get off my treadmill!!!! *punch*
