So I forgot a towel for the gym this morning...

And that means a smaller one to use during my workout and a larger one to dry off after my shower.

Immediately when I realized this I rummaged through my messy truck looking for even a small hand towel, but to no avail. The best I could come up with was a work polo that I'd left in my truck after Fridays workout.

So while working out, I notice a small towel on one of the leg press machines. It stays there for the entire hour I was working out, so it was obviously left there.

I did the most ethical thing I could think of...used the towel (smelled ok) to dry off after my shower then turned it in at the front desk on my way out.

At least I didn't forget underwear or a shirt this time...

    Lol! "Smelled ok"

    Forgetting underwear would have been easier I think, if you're just going home. Commando!

    Yikes, that is gross... But I would not have done that at all...You don't know, how or what someone lives and if there sick...

    I would have just used a papertowl. Or bought a towl from the gym.....

    Just don't do it in the future not healthy, or ethical....

    I have totally forgot all my underwear. I wore a swim suit to the gym and didn't want to wear it wet home but I don't think I would EVER use a towel left sitting around. More power to you!!!

    I guess it says something about me that I trusted someone else's funk over my own (the worn old shirt i was going to use to dry off)

    I... uh... wouldn't use someone else's towel. Not even if it seemed relatively clean. If you've got a nice build, I'm sure the ladies could appreciate it if you hang out in their change room until you're done air drying, though:wink:

    I forgot to bring a second pair of undies when I went to the gym, recently. I did a bunch of stuff in the weight room, and then changed into a bathing suit, stood under the showers, and hopped into the pool a bit to relax. I brought an extra bra and tank (pants aren't really sweaty/clingy after a workout; just the underthings and top). I wasn't about to crawl back into sweat-soaked underroos... and I was walking home a couple of km... sooo.... I walked the trails that evening, commando:laugh:

    Hahahahaha. That reminds of a time I had in the locker room. Dude kept repeating "Gotta get it on, gotta get it on" and got totally necked next to me. Creeped me out.

    Eeep, I would never use a mystery fabric item at a gym. I know someone who contracted crabs from a towel he borrowed from someone he knew... the guy said it was clean lol my friend itchily disagreed and had to see a doctor

    I think I would have opted for either no shower or going home wet. Yet I wonder how dry you could get using toilet paper?

    Just logged on, haven't gotten that far. Thanks for the reminder though. I'll have to rooting around for it.

    On second thought, forget the toilet paper. You'd get covered in all those little balled up pieces of wet TP. Instead, perhaps one could dry off by streaking.

    THE GOOD THING! You didn't just say o crap I forgot my towel and skip the gym! I remember buying shoes once for $10 just because I forgot mine 20 miles away. No Excuses Right?

    THE BAD THING! You could have used your work polo, random towels could have been used for anything!
