I think it's mainly because while I tread, I usually watch a DVD or listen to a book (I find the scary ones the best - get that adrenaline pumping). And in addition to having to stop the media, I have to stop the treadmill because I just can't hear or focus on what's being said unless I do.

I know that being interrupted while doing anything can irritate even the most saintly of people, but I really think my annoyance at workout interruptions are out of proportion.

Anyone else experience this?


I have 4 children, so I get interrupted OFTEN! I get enraged. DH learned fast. The older ones remember now to NOT interrupt Mommy while she is exercising or else Mean Mommy will come out. Unfortunately, the little kids keep forgetting. I try to breathe and remember they are still little and they'll get it soon. But still UGH!
