i love my gym.

i'm sure it's the only gym where your spinning instructor asks you what kind of song you want to sweat to on sunday morning, and your recommendation of u2's "elevation" is greeted with hearfelt enthusiams and spontaneous falling into song.

i'm also dead sure it's the only gym in this city on whose video system you might end up seeing the following videos back to back:
u2 - one (bar version). robbie williams - feel (live). gomez - catch me up. coldplay - in my place.

yeah.

it makes burning 650kcal in 45minutes on a crosstrainer while the batteries of your cd player have just run out much more bearable.
