Or he might have been testing the equipment. My local gym has a contract with sportswear manufacturer and they give out sports wear to be tested for sweating, level of comfort etc.

Perhaps her profession requires her to do squats in heels - a dancer, of sorts. :P

I'm not sure if they intended to do this, but it's interesting on a way deeper level. The letter that could be both, an "i" or and "a" is displayed by a little stick figure that represents a person. And this person is basically you and it's your choice, if the letter is an "i" or an "a". You wanne be fit...be an "i"...of not...well...stay fatforever. :D

There are fun runs where people are in full costume. He probably just wants to train in the same outfit.
