Days 17 and 18: Keep going

Aw, come on, I must have done more since the last time I posted!

Anyway, for sure I went yesterday.  Guardians of the Galaxy, did free weights afterwards, yadda, yadda, yadda.

Today another gym user came in after I started on the cycle.  She had earbuds in and was fine with my playing music over the television system.  Which was understandable, because when she started on the treadmill, that's all I heard, and I kept pace with it, which was considerably faster than what I'm used to, and as a result, the machine set the resistance far lower than it's been before, but I don't understand while I had fewer miles when I have more rpms.

After she ran for 20 minutes, she used the free weights and then went on to core exercises.  I've been reluctant to use the gym mat here, but she seemed to be comfortable with it, and was able to check her form.  I, on the other hand, went on to a simple no-resistance 10 extra minutes of cycling for coo-down.  She left the room.  My time ran out and my music ended.  I noticed that when I stopped pedaling during the program, that rpms were still being tallied as if I hadn't stopped--what's that about?

I wiped down my equipment, put things to right, and then headed over to the store to buy groceries.
