Within the last week I joined a local gym in my town. I received a discounted rate because I teach (sweet!). There are a few reasons why I joined the gym instead of sticking to the roads.

1. I know that I will work out more often when I have to pay for it.
2. The surgery I had on my foot in September needs to be done again. Running on the road is literally painful for every step I take. They have a lot of equipment that I can use that does not involve pain for every step I take.
3. They have a pool that is rarely used by other people. And, I enjoy swimming long distances without being bothered.
4. Free towels! (Okay, not the biggest reason, but I like it)

I know people do not always like gyms and some even detest them. However, joining this gym has been great for me. I've been there almost everyday since I've joined, have yet to have any problems while working out, only once was a machine I wanted to use not available, the staff is great, and I learned how to use the high-speed swimsuit water extractor.

So, to balance off the running logs (which, admittedly, I am not running very often), I am starting my gym logs so you can see exactly what I am doing instead of running. I know this should call for a change in my domain name, but I don't want to spend the $5 to buy another domain. :-)
