Backwards Run

Today at the gym I've been trying to train for a 5km run. I've just started out and still gaining skills, but as I am barely making my own running and sweating like crazy a guy gets on a treadmill and starts running quite fast. Suddenly the guy jumps and does a 180 on the treadmill and starts RUNNING backwards. I just about fell over and then couldn't stop smiling.
Dream, cause apparently you can do tricks on a treadmill!

I've seen that several times at my gym. It freaked me out the first time. I'm not sure the reasoning behind it but if you pay attention to the people on machines that kinda look like gazelle machines you will see some of them running backwards too!0
