When at the gym it's best not to think too deeply about the possible inanity and/or futility of what you are doing, and the fact that you are doing it repeatedly, but instead to try to focus on the noble aim and/or dream which motivated you to go there in the first place.
I had an uncomfortable moment once when I was watching "Oz", a prison drama which, while otherwise excellent, has the slightly irritating conceit of having one of the characters narrate direct to camera the Big Life Events (this being a US drama) that occurred in the series. I was running on a treadmill, and the character began running on a treadmill, while talking about how we are all going nowhere on our own treadmill, as I ran along going, er, nowhere on a treadmill.
Quick! Switch over to BBC World before it all becomes too existential!
