Exercise?

It has been relatively nice outside over the past few days. With the nice weather brings an increase in the number of walkers, runners, and other people just enjoying the parks and seawall in Vancouver. With this weather I have been struck, once again, by truly bizarre behaviour. This particular behaviour seems to be most prevalent with middle aged asian women. Though I have seen similar behaviour from middle aged asian men, it just doesn't seem as prevalent.

So there will be these middle aged asian women out walking or jogging. Which I think, by the way, is awesome. Exercise is for anyone is a great choice. However, for some reason something takes over them after a little while...they begin to flail their arms back and forth like wild person. It is the strangest looking thing. It is like they lose control of all good sense in them.

It has been suggested to me that these people seem to think that this is burning more calories which is why they do it. Well, that would be like me voluntarily convulsing  to 'get some exercise'. If that is really the reason the they fail around, I have only one word in response...ridiculous.
