Felt OK this morning, legs felt a little better after a day off of running but this pain in my butt is getting to be a real....  Well you know.  Today was very strange, I've been going to Lifetime fitness for like 7 years now (with a break in between when I moved) but anyway, I get on the same treadmill every morning on the front row and rarely does anyone run next to me, I always figured it was cause I stink.  But today I went through like 3 different sets of people who came up and ran next to me, some of them even talked, one girl told me people didn't run next to me cause it was intimidating.  I'm not that scary.   I thought having people to talk to would make the time go by faster, it didn't. 

Tomorrow Ryan told me he would run 18 miles outside with me, we'll see how that goes.  He's been out on injury leave for months now.

Same thing happens to me at the gym, the whole other side of the TM bank will fill up before anyone gets close to me (besides Curt and Marlin). I figure it was because I stink too! I don't mind those two talking to me though.

The sad thing about it was that today I did stink. I was wearing one of those tech shirts that once it starts to smell no matter how many times you wash it it never is the same. It was quite embarrassing.

Gyms are very weird! I'd be bored to tears without people watching while running.

Nice run Rob!

Gyms ARE WEIRD. I don't love going there. ugh. But I know what you mean. And I am with Rachelle, I people watch and it's funny. :)
