Worked out yesterday after two weeks of not

I've been sick, then too busy to work out.  But whenever someone mentioned they had worked out, I felt this weird pang in me.  Dunno why exactly.  I suppose I still see working out as a thing that people who are either healthy (I was so sick it would've sapped my strength more, and who wants to have someone constantly coughing or sneezing working ( Read more... )

Not that I didn't beat my best time (6:36) but that the number wasn't symmetrical or a nice round number. :P

OMG I LOVE YOU ;.; I always keep an eye out at the gym to see if there's anyone else that doesn't stop until it hits the "right" number, but they never do, so I always feel like I'm the only one. Yay we're both numerically neurotic! *cling*

And don't sweat it about the 7-min mile, I only wish I could do that x.x I'm typically 10-min on the elliptical or 13-min on the treadmill, stupid asthma >.< Plus you've actually got a good routine set, mine is just "Hmm, that machine is open and doesn't have other people around it, I guess I'll do a few sets of that."

Yeah, I was sprinting at the end and so bummed I didn't make 7:00. Or 6:56... Yay for numerical neuroticism! *CLINGS*

I've never tried my gym's sole stairmaster. I've tread the treadmill but it seems really awkward and I have a hard time finding my rhythm. I'm always a millisecond off (or several). I need to hold onto the bar when I use them. *blush* We have several of these Elevation cross trainers. I'm not sure which one exactly we have, or what the diff is between the three... http://www.lifefitness.com/commercial/cardio/ellipticalcrosstrainers.html

Hee, most of my college's gym is full of Life Fitness equipment, besides older strength machines/benches/weights/bars so I just do a circuit of all of them I can use alone. Thanks, though!

Edit: I tried to explain 7:01 by saying "1" and "7" are both prime numbers but that seemed so weak!

I'm weird about numbers like that, too. I'm obsessed with the number 13. I always want my weight to add up to 13 (there are two weights acceptable to me that add up to 13, but the lower one I probably couldn't get away with anymore without the psychiatrist interfering since he watches me closely now).

Ah, okay. Does it stem from being born on the 13th of a month?

Yes, and my grandmother went into the hospital to die on Thursday, January 13, which is the day/month/date I was born on. I have other personal references to the 13th of stuff as well.
