I am so tricky, I’ve finally managed to fool myself.
In an effort to look more like a presentable human being at work, I’ve started wearing my workout clothes to walk to work, and changing into work attire when I get here. It means I wear a lot more uncomfortable, but oh so pretty shoes during the day.
So I arrive at work, change out of my gym clothes (into an outfit complete with uncomfortable shoes), and leave them in my locker in the gym downstairs. This requires, naturally, that when I leave, I reverse the process and go into the gym, change into my gym clothes (an outfit complete with comfy socks and runners)….
… and suddenly I’m in my gym clothes, at the gym. If I do not work out now I am the epitome of lame and lazy.
So with 10 minutes left in my day (still in the uncomfortable shoes) I’m trying to scheme a way out of going into the gym. And I’m at a loss. Looks like I’ll have to resign myself to another crack at the treadmill.
Crazy like a fox I am. sigh

I can see the temptation to not do it, but man, how great is it that you have a gym at work? Enjoy it, even as you curse the “inconvenience”. It’s all good, in the long run.
Cheers.

Hmm… good idea that. Now that Ive read this story, I feel like having a pint of beer and a pub burger. Youve inspired me.
