"The Gym" by José Hernandez Diaz
The Gym
A man went to the gym on his day off from work. He works as a librarian in the city. He was organizing a set of books about exercise when he decided he needed to start going to the gym. First, he ran on the treadmill for forty-five minutes. He felt alive. Then, he worked out on the bench-press. He felt good. Finally, the man swam in the pool and then relaxed in the jacuzzi. When he got home, he read a book about Salvador Dali’s paintings of giraffes, elephants, and dreams. He fell asleep like a sloth in a tree.
