Is that generally true? Anybody know how accurate (or inaccurate) the damned things usually are? (And I use "damned" not as an expletive here, but as a wholly appropriate descriptive term).

Save yourself a lot of trouble. Just have your treadmill shipped to zoom-zoom's. At least she would appreciate it.

remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air.

I have suspicions that our own Devil'sHamsterWheel (DHW) is not even in the ballpark of being close to accurate. Anyway to test it? I'm curious. And I'd like to find out before the exorcism.

You say you've tried different gloves, but have you ever tried putting any of those small instant heat packs inside your gloves? I don't know how comfy that would be, but just an idea. My brother works outside and they use them to keep their hands warm. You just squish the pack which breaks the contents inside causing I'm assuming some kind of chemical reaction, and the heat lasts about 6-8 hours. LL Bean has boots with these in them too to keep the toes toasty!
I failed to mention that some of the heat packs are reusable too! The kind that my brother has only last for the 6-8 hours, then they're done!
If a treadmill is evil and an instrument of the devil , what do you call the nice soft couch or the box of jelly donuts that beckons me? I am with laura25, I don’t like to run in the cold, so I run on the treadmill instead. I enjoy the warmth, the tunes, and the running. It is time for the people of the treadmill to come out of the closet and be counted!!!
