Ugggh.

I thought I'd squeeze a treadmill workout in this afternoon. Got on the treadmill and got a good workout in. I should have realized that the water wasn't mine when I took the first sip and realized how warm it was. No, I continued on with my workout. I went to grab my keys and jackets and there was MY water bottle. Yes, I was drinking someone else's water - backwash and all, I assume.

I just hope they didn't have a cold - or worse. Yucckkkkk!

    Yukk lol..I am a bit like you don`t like to drink/share a bottle with anyone. But now it is done try to forget about it..whats the worst..maybe it comes from someone with great enzymes for breaking down fat? Or as you say cold germs...don`t think you will contract anything major...they were at the gym so most likely not sick.

    I don't know, I see plenty of threads on here... I'm sick, should I work out? How many opt for the yes answer!

    Just eat some dirt (like rubbing dirt on an injury) germs are good, toughen you up so you aren't an immune system wuss getting those super bugs :p

    When I used to fly a lot I made sure to have really ugly and weird looking luggage so I could find it easily on the baggage carousel. I think if I went to the gym I'd apply the same logic to my water bottle! Just saying.

    Thanks for the advice and tips. I appreciate it!

    I am psyching myself into thinking that maybe it was a really cute guy who left it there and someone I wouldn't mind making out with??? I haven't had a cold or anything like that in over 2 years. I will be really po'd if I come down with something!

    At least you didn't wipe your face with someone else's towel. No that did not happen to me. Lol
