Jean's adventures at the gym

So, I have nothing of import to say, but I do have some random stuff that was pretty funny.

I was over at Jean's place (Jean is a friend, sort of like an extra grandma) and we got onto the topic of gyms. She said that she went with a friend to workout at the CCC gym, and had quite the experience. I'll note here that Jean is quite active, definitely not doddering, and over 75 years old.

Jean's friend had a workout trainer and the whole deal, but Jean was trying to play it low key on her first try at a gym. She tried a reclining bike, but it bothered her new knee. She then went on to an upright stationary bike, and was doing just fine, going on at a nice clip . . . until the exercise ball escaped from the guy doing mat exercises across from her.

The ball shot under the front wheel of Jean's bike, which promptly reared up like a bronco. Naturally Jean reared up with it, but to the admiration of the room, managed to hold on. When they got the ball away from the bike and Jean got her feet back on solid ground, she decided that going to the gym wasn't really her thing.
