A) Manical hysterical laughter
or
B)Cathartic tears running down face
the “loony lady look.” I’ve gathered my share while on the treadmill, walking the dog, or at a stoplight with the window down. Perhaps men get the “goofy guy look??”

And for those serious about the audiobook/fitness connection… Read Belinda Webb’s January 1st article in the UK’s Guardian blog titled “The Audiobook Diet.”
