Hofstra Gym, second floor

Far sounds – hum of machines surrounding me, weights hitting floor downstairs, muffled conversations as people run by, feet hitting the track surrounding me

medium sounds – rhythmic hum of treadmills as people run, tv above me, music on radio in gym speakers, conversation behind me, pull of the paper towel machine

Close sounds – music pulsing in my headphones, water bottle clanking against the machine, the hit of my feet on the treadmill 

Sound level – full of random clashing background noise, but overall medially mellow. Not too rambunctious. 

one word – focused

Most important sounds —  rhythmic hum of treadmills as people run, pull of the paper towel machine,  weights hitting floor
