Running related bathroom stop story:
Was on one of my long treadmill runs and I always take a bottle of gatorade, chips, and water to drink. On this particular day I used the empty bottle of gatorade for other things since I didn't like running upstairs to the bathroom. well, After a couple of hours of running I took a handfull of chips and reached for the gaterade to wash them down. I thought, wow, this gatorade must have gotten warm by the window seal....... I'm a little more careful what I drink these days.
