Sweet Smell of Sweat!

Every morning, I wake up around 5:30 to hit the gym. There are things that I find very comical when I go...I'm not sure if it's because I'm deliriously tired and so everything seems funny or if it is in fact really funny, but I thought I'd share what makes me lovingly laugh every morning.

*The cute slightly overweight old man who wears a t-shirt that says, "Wild Thing" on it.

*My friend Tiffany who charges up the stairs at a level 19 for an hour, which means that she is pretty much running up them the whole time. (I don't know how she does it. I can barely walk up them for 5 minutes without getting utterly exhausted!)

*The cute (yet ripped!) old woman who typically wears her hair in pigtails or a banana clip (I haven't seen a banana clip since like 1991!)

*My friend, Paige, who is super friendly and talks to people when she works out, but doesn't realize she's yelling because she's listening to her ipod at the same time.

Who knew working out at 5:30 could be so entertaining!?!

I wish my 5:30 am workouts were that interesting mine consist of the creepy way too flexible guy stretching out or me swimming to the end of my lane only to come face to speedo because an overweight man is doing squats in the pool in my lane.

Think I'll sleep in tomorrow

A banana clip?! Ah! I haven't seen or thought of those in AGES, but that seriously made my night!

Oh man I died laughing reading that post, especially the talking loud part. How many times have we all done that? I miss the morning crew and need to get back on it now that life's calmed down a little. :)

That's funny! I still own a banana clip...just in case. :) My favorite thing about your workout is the little old man!
