My gym at Russell Square Station

Some time ago, me and my friend M. were seriously planning to sign up for a gym....seriously!as the summer is never too far and there is the "bikini test" to pass.
The reason why our good purpose failed is that, ignoring the high percentage of laziness which obstructed us in finding a good gym,we don't have enough money to pay a good gym for the long period we need it to get fit!
London Underground Service is the solution!

Arriving at Russell Square station on the Piccadilly line,the lifts to the ground floor are always overcrowded,full of tourists and those kind of huge space ships which are called prams that actually should have their own lift.
Imagine you,being in a hurry, getting at the lifts finding that probably you will not even reach the famous "closing doors" in less than one hour...the only other way is the stair case,175 steps.



The poster says: "Take the stairs only in case of emergency" but you take them anyway, at your own risk.

After 15 minutes you get at the ground floor, sweat, tired, out of breath but glad that you survived such a hard test and that, taking all those 175 bloody steps, you might burnt off a huge amount of calories and fats!!!!!!

So,thank you London Underground for providing such a good, effective and cheap gym service, all included in the oyster card price!
