I am a social exerciser. I like working out with other people and if I can't get a friend to the gym I like going to the 'group exercise' classes.
When I can't get to a class and have no one with whom to workout I usually hit the treadmill or the elliptical. I usually go to the one that is sort of out of the way. I hate getting on when others are already in full swing.
Except that I get a boost out of being next to someone who looks like they're in their zone. So much so, that when a fellow runner hopped on the treadmill next to me the other day I found myself setting my pace to match hers. Okay, I was point one slower - I know my limits.
I ended up jogging further than I had planned (yeah), but was exhausted, more sweaty than ever, and two days later still feel the twinges of that little feat.
