Today I went to the my gym, the YMCA. It's kind of a happening place, there always seems to be a lot going on. Anyway, I went during lunch time. I was just finishing up on the elliptical machine and was getting ready to move on to the treadmill. I was pretty excited because my very favorite treadmill was totally open. (It is by a fan and on the back row.) I rarely get it because the gym is generally busy. Today, was an exception. There was only a few of us there. (I was loving it!) Then suddenly a guy totally gets onto the treadmill next to the one I want. Note: I hate it when there are a ton of machines open and someone comes right next to you. Dang! Plan B, go to the rowing machine and wait for new dude to leave. I have good reason to think he might not last too long because his work out shoes happen to be the big yellow construction boots (except they are dark brown.) I was right, not even 5 minutes later he gets off and heads out. I get on the treadmill and begin that part of my workout. About 10 minutes into my slow jog, the guy comes back in and starts up again on the treadmill next to me. Apparently, he needed some sustenance to get through his workout. Lucky for the dude, there is a Dunkin Donuts right across the street from the YMCA. Yes, he went and got a doughnut and a iced coffee and brought it back with him. He slowly walked, watched Vegas on TV, and munched on his lunch. I wasn't quite sure what to think. A HUGE part of me was jealous. I want to eat a doughnut. The other part of me was totally confused. I don't quite get his thinking.
Hmmm... Overall, I just thought it was pretty funny and reminded me why I love the members of the YMCA!

That is AWESOME! Makes me want to take a donut to the gym, to eat while I'm on the treadmill...
Classic!
I finally found your blog again! I'm officially adding you on my side bar! You're adorable!
That is so funny! Thanks for the laugh.
I am with you I don't get it??? Good for you for going to the gym, please send your motivation my way, I could use some.
Sounds like something I'd do :) minus the boots, though!
...So am I totally crazy or did I see Brady's wife on 'So You Think You Can Dance'??
You did see her, I am sooo impressed that you recognized her. The clip was super quick. She made it to the top 30 girls. We so need to chat!
How funny. I don't think I have ever seen someone eat a donut while working out. However, one of my friends loves to munch on junk food while watching "The Biggest Loser"
Top 30 girls, that is so great! What an accomplishment, I wish I could've seen a little more of her in action!
We soooo need to chat, what an understatement!!! We definitely do!!
