My Treadmill Walking Story
"What do you mean I need walking shoes!"
My lazy brain reacts to today's first of two treadmill walks.
I walk up my creaky stairs to the front door.
"There you are," I mumble, grabbing my awesome ASICS walking shoes for the day.
I walk over to the living room and look outside. It's about -18 degrees Celsius.
The window looks like a white rectangle of moving haze of overcast clouds hoarding the sunlight.
I take a look at the treadmill and realize my calf muscles are about as cold as the inside of my freezer.
"Where's that massage gun," the brain mutters again.
Suddenly! CaClunk!
I hear the mailbox close outside. My excitement lasts about as long as a pen escaping its lid.
Buzzzzzzzzzzz.
The massage gun fires up.
My mind starts to wander while looking for my smartphone.
The treadmill looks like it's underwater with a glow-like reflection from the blue blinds.
The room feels cold this morning.
"There it is!" I silently mutter with delight.
I open up the phone and confusingly navigate through the labyrinth of apps.
I step on the chilly treadmill's walking deck.
Scroll

I look up again from the long, rectangular mysterious almost magic 8 ball.
"Should I get the mail?"
There is a long pause of treadmill start button hesitation.
A ray of sunlight flashes through and lands on the blue carpet.
"Na, I'll get it later."
