This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Sure, there are valid reasons to go running in the gym. TubularTittyFrog also mentioned daylight and weather. But I see too many people running in my gym during sunny days and the gym is 100m away from a forrest on one side and 300m from a park on the other side. So why not go for a run outside and return to the studio for the next round of weight training.

There are also cardio options in the studio I do understand: Cross trainer and rowing machine for example. Not everyone has their own rowing boat. But running indoors right next to a perfectly fine outdoor opportunity I won't understand. I don't say it's stupid, I just don't get it.
