pulled the plug

Today we got back from vacation and decided to hit the gym. I opted for indoor running today just because I had the opportunity to get it done and have someone watch Naomi- so while doing so I was feeling great and running a 9:20 mile (which is an improvement-scary I know), but it was my 3 mile day and I was really feeling great, strides were long, oxygen was good...you know, in a rhythm...then all of the sudden with 3 tenths of a mile left in my run a gentleman started cleaning my treadmill. I literally was like WTF, why is he cleaning it while I am on it? I was distracted by him, but decided to power through it and not let it ruin my mo-jo...then the lights went off and the treadmill came to a complete stop, game over. I wanted to yell at the guy, but instead looked at him and said "you accidentally shut off my machine" to which he apologized, but I think I was giving off that I was mad because he said" it was an accident, didn't you need a break anyway?" I looked at him and said "no" then walked away and did some leg press and squats... I later felt bad for being rude and went and apologized and said I wasn't mad, I was just in such a groove... me and Paul are fine now- but I am hoping he will learn to wait until someone is off the machine to clean it!

Tomorrow is a make up run from vacation- 2 miles, that is really starting to feel like a piece of cake, so far so good!

Tim did something similar to me last night....I'm rockin' out to my boyfriend, J.T., while on the elliptical and Tim comes up trying to converse with me. Are you kidding? Step off...I'm in a zone!
