I had a gym interaction worthy of nyc today!!!

I went to my old gym for a change in routine.

First, I warmed up on the elliptical.
Stats: 121 cal, .91 cal, 13:00 min

The body of my workout was weight training. I did about an hour of it. I started in the 30 minute circuit training room. I went through the lower body section nodding and exchanging "Good morning"s to people who came in and out and then, when I was on upper body, a conversation started between two older gentlemen. I let it go for a minute and then I decided to butt in and add my .02 and it worked out beautifully. The gentlemen and I continued conversating for a little while before we all went our separate ways.

We were talking about a medical crisis that occurred. Dozens of people overdosed on synthetic marijuana. The news this morning said it was laced with fentanyl. One report from a medical professional said that some of those who overdosed did it more than once; that some of them had multiple hospital bracelets on their wrists.

Very sad.

This propelled the conversation to a generational discussion as well.

If you are interested, here's an article on it.

I cooled down with a long stretch in the back on a mat.
