Gym Rats

So as I have been working out I have taken notice that there are about 3 different groups of people. Let me outline these groups for you. (WARNING: This is how my mind works, sometimes. Okay ALL the time!)


Group 1- This group is usually the older crowd with the occasional pregnant woman sprinkled in. This group of people generally like to take it slow on the treadmill. This could also include the social work-out person. You know the person there looking for a mate so they are chatting up EVERYONE of the opposite sex. When you find them talking to someone of the same sex you start to wonder.  I find them to be inspiring that they still get out and workout! Way to go Group 1!

Group 2- I find mostly wanna be runners in this group. This consists of the people who get on the treadmill and start by walking and transition into running. But about half a mile into MUST stop for water. (I am partly in this group but slowly making my way into Group 3 I now start by running and dont stop for about 1.5 miles to get a sip of water then im right back on!) I'm working on it. Dont judge me :0)

Group 3-  This includes ALL serious runners. You know the ones, they get on the treadmill start running and don't stop. They are running before you get on your treadmill and are still running once you're done.  I like to think I am in this group but I don't think my status has shifted from Group 2 into Group 1. 

Today I had this thought. What would happen if someone from group 1 melded into group 2? Would a pregnant woman be able to run? What if an OLDER, pregnant woman worked out hard core. What then!?!?! My groups would be completly ruined.

So nevermind just ignore my groupings all together. They are totally and completely off base. However, I will continue to hold these people in their respective groups. Thats just the way my mind works. Oh and don't even get me started on the groups of weight lifters. They are even funnier than the runners.

Here's a little preview of THAT... The guy on the right on his phone. Check out the 80's cut, awesome cut-off shirt, and sweatpants. Watch out... he means business.

More on that later.
