I put in all my stats, get the program started, fire up the iPod, and start my run.
After about 15 minutes, a guy comes and stands right in front of my treadmill. I do not know him. After a couple of seconds of him looking at me, I reach up and take the earbuds out of my ears. And he says "That's my usual treadmill."
"Oh," I say. I look down at the display and say "I'll be finished in about 15 minutes."
He repeats that it is his usual treadmill. I look around, note at least a dozen unused treadmill, and shrug my shoulders. I then replace my earbuds.
Did this asshole really think I was going to just stop in the middle of my workout so that he could have "his usual treadmill"?

I think that it was nice of you to tell him how much time you had left. There's a new nicer treadmill at my gym that everyone wants to use because, well, it's new and nicer. My gym is pretty small, so everyone who works out around the same time knows each other, at least by sight. We all let each other know how much longer we'll be on it. If it's more than fifteen minutes or so, we'll hop on one of the other treadmills. Less than that, we'll do crunches or something until the person is finished.
