I'm not ashamed. And in case you're wondering, I'm the sweaty, out of breath weirdo side eyeing you. And making sure you don't raise a.) incline, or b.) speed. Cuz those be fighting words my friend... Anyone else do this? Funny stories?
It's been awhile since I ran on a treadmill and one at the gym at that! But I totes get you!! When I ran a 5k on Thanksgiving, a girl I was good friends with in high school was there and running with her hubs. She is much skinnier and a more experienced runner and I love her to death. But.... My main goal was to beat her....and I did. :) (But probably only cos she was staying with her husband...whatever...Loser!) This post totally cracks me up!

You brave soul, once the weather dips below 30 I forget what outdoor runs are and prep my treadmill suicide note.
DeleteGo YOU - you beat her fair and square ;)
I've totally embarrassed myself on countless occasions "racing" people on the treadmill...Hi, my name is Marcia and I'm socially awkward.
