Here are five random thoughts I had on the treadmill today:

1) Why am I on this treadmill? Didn’t I used to think they were for lazy people?

2) It sure is hot in here. I wonder how much longer the sun will be shining on me through these windows. These floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Minneapolis are pretty cool.

3) I wonder if the middle-aged lady next to me is also listening to The Killers. Probably not. These guys rock.

4) I wonder what the record is for most teeth lost after falling and hitting one’s face on the handles/display. I bet it’s not in Guiness.

5) Could I keep up this pace in a street race? Probably not. I bet I could at least beat the lady here not listening to The Killers.

It’s amazing what things float through the mind when we’re just walking and running for minutes and minutes or hours at a time. Since I’m getting back into the routine of working out, expect more thoughts from a treadmill in the future.
