Phew...it's up and running! Tried it out for ~400 m. Can't tell you how bad I wanted to just get a run in on it. It seems like a really nice treadmill.

I should have ordered one of those damn things. I cut yesterday's run short due to the wind driven cold rain, and now they are calling for snow tomorrow.
And it's only October.
Not at it at all.

No shit, I wish I was financially able to pick one up, but the washer AND dryer took a dump last week and we're shopping for a new set right now. I'm not ready to utter the S word yet, I still haven't picked up the leaves.

Feeling the growl again
Minivan and heat pump in the last couple months, with the wife about to take time off for maternity leave. I feel your pain.

Looks familiar...have fun with the set-up.
So the arrows means that this one has forward and reverse gears. Good luck with that.

It's to practice ostrich running.
Holy shit. Rich coaches Ben and Candice. That's it. I'm sure I just saw Satan at Dick's buying a snowboard.
Who the hell is Rich?
I could link the threads for you, but you'd lose 10 IQ points just from reading them. To summarize, you need to run like a cheetah or without swinging your arms. Haile G. could bring his marathon time down by 20% if he was not too arrogant to listen to Rich and adopt his methods.

Wow, that really sucked. I seriously thought that I would get frostbitten.
