I've always hated the treadmill. It's boring. You walk/run going nowhere. It always conjures up visions of a rat running on a wheel. That and I've never really been able to do more than a fast walk.Nevertheless, I thought I would give it another try. After losing 33 lbs., why not? So I hopped on and set the machine to a speed of 2.5. Too slow. I increased it to 3.0. That was still too slow. I increased it again... and again.... until I reached 5.0 and was running with the maximum amount of incline.
I kept waiting for something to hurt or to get winded, but it never happened. I was still running after a full 30 minutes. Wow!
