Getting in Shape

I have finally gotten the new treadmill out of the garage and into the basement so I now have a complete workout facility where I can turn the music up loud and look like a complete fool with no one watching me.
The tread mill is a rather complicated thing with lots of settings and incline capabilities. I set it up and got on it. I figured I would start out slow, so I pressed 3 (out of 10) and the belt started to turn. HeY! this is not so bad, I can do this pretty well. Those are famous last words! Being a guy, I started pressing buttons to try this or that. It was less than 2 minutes before I was completely exhausted. Well, I will try again tomorrow and try to keep my hand off the shiny buttons.
Luckily, I did not have this fellow's luck.
