Gyms have been sprouting up everywhere in the last couple of decades.
There's one by the bus stop I use regularly, so while waiting for the bus, I see these people doing the treadmill: on and on and on, I see them treading the conveyor belt.
Each time, I think, "Why don't these people just walk everywhere? This way, they get their exercise, as well as save money (bus/Tube fare; their gym subscription) and save the environment (energy / electricity for powering these machines)."
PS: This blog is just a light-hearted take on the gym culture. I know that there're all sorts of other facilities and activities they offer that are designed scientifically to produce health benefits, etc. So put that brick away.
