kind of.
I've started training for my half marathon in January and it's been a pretty good two weeks or so. I'm running three miles consistently, which believe it or not, is good for me because frankly I SUCK at running. Anyway, it's been WAY to frickin hot to run outside, even at 7 am, so I've been going to LA fitness to run on the treadmills.
I know running on the treadmill is easier, but I'm sorry, I'm not getting up at 7am my last few weeks of summer and I am NOT running in 100+ degree heat. So, to LA Fitness I go 6 days a week to run. I find running gives me time to think and to listen awesome music and lately watch the amazingness that is MICHAEL PHELPS....
Needless to say watching him swim for our country in the olympics, inspires me to push on and run. The Man is a fish I swear to God.
Anyway, back to LA Fitness. As much as I enjoy running in a cool environment that enables me to watch the hottest swimmer in history, I do not enjoy being around people when I work out. It bothers me. I am either annoyed by people or fear I am annoying others. Also, I hate when people see me while I'm working out or afterwards...cuz frankly I look like hell. Literally...
Also, I have a thing where I don't like people I don't know using the treadmill or elliptical or bike or whatever I may be using next to me. It makes me feel self conscious or I get annoyed cuz they're talking on the phone or to the person next to them or something. Seriously....it's gym...why would you be on the phone when all the other person can hear is you breathing heavily into their ear. That's awkward.
Also, I am unbelievably paranoid I am going to get ringworm or something.
Gross.
Words of wisdom:
Apparently Lifetime Fitness is the place to be....so invest in that instead of LA Fitness or something. You may feel cleaner and there will be less people from your high school senior class there to judge you and the 30 lbs you've gained.
