Pick up at the gym

18 Dec 2014

I have gym membership in a local chain of gyms. I usually go to the gym near home, but once in a while because of work, I use the gym in a nearby city.
Sometimes, usually at the end of my workout (when to be honest I'm a little sweaty) gets on a treadmill in the front row of machines. (I prefer the elipitical machines in the second row). She doesn't wear a ring and we have smile at each other in the mirror.
How do I introduce myself without it being awkward? I can't hang around for her to end her work out as I have to get back to work.

Gosh, I don't see any way around all the obstacles in this situation.

just go up and introduce yourself, but make sure that first time that there is zero "pick up" vibe. make it no more than a minute or so.

you can either build off of that or not in the future, but after that you should pay very close attention to her signals.
