How Do I Tell Someone I'd Rather Not Workout With Them?

a friend of mine at work frequenly asks me if she can workout with me, especially on my big workout days; the problem is i don't like to workout with anyone. i'm very focused and i don't like to talk while i'm concentrating on my weights and form. the other problem is that it already takes me two hours on the nights i lift weights and do my hour of cardio, i don't want it to take longer all the while waiting for her to get her reps in. i know i should be nice and let her join me, since she's interested but i'm just not ready for a workout partner. we used to workout together months before and i don't workout nearly as hard when she's with me because she's talking talking talking, and she's an enabler and quick to say, wanna get outta here and get a drink? she's very distracting in yoga classes too... she whispers to me the whole time and she gets up and leaves during the end relaxation portion, how awful is that? she's nice and i love to be around her and talk to her except at the gym...
