Yes! I am racing you.

 

Edit: same goes for the elliptical machine, the stair climber, a stationary bike, in a 5k, and most especially on a rower!

LOL!   I thought this was going to say:  "Do NOT be talking on your cell phone the whole time about how bad your date was last night!'   When I used to use the local college's gym, I was privvy to lots of personal phone calls - ick! 

Have a great day, Keith!

I love it!  I've been going the Y since February, and before the I went to Planet Fitness, and even though I was pushing 300 lbs whenever some skinny person used to get on the treadmill next to me to just walk (which is all I could do) I would push the heck out of myself to walk at a faster speed then them.

Another way to compete with someone who is going faster than you and you are walking, match your incline with their speed. If they are running at 7 mph, set your incline to 7.5 or 8 then you are beating them!

That's a whole other issue. My thing is if you can talk on your phone while you are on the treadmill you are not working hard enough and you are wasting a machine.

Well that does happen! I would not want to use my treadmill after me. I do wipe it down but still...
