can anyone recommend a good treadmill to buy.

i started running 5K s this past summer and i am by no means fast but i found out i do actually enjoy running and would like to continue it into the winter. but with my husband on different shifts and a small toddler at home getting outside to run is getting tougher.

so i want a treadmill - one that i can comfortably run on (i am hoping to someday be faster)
and has an incline
i can't afford top of the line, but don't want to buy junk

    Hi I cant say but it might be an idea to pop into a gym and explain your position and maybe one of the trainers could advise you!could be an expensive mistake otherwise!Or a good sports supply shop!Best of luck Id love to have the room to do this but just not possible,definitely do your research!

    I don't know anything about this but I have noticed that there are squillions of them on ebay - I suppose people buy them and then they just sit in the garage or wherever. So it might be worth looking at secondhand when you find out the best makes.
  • Read as many user reviews on line as you can then try and find the one you want on Amazon or similar, that's what we did and got exactly what we wanted - with automatic incline at a good price - a lot of the very cheap ones you have to manually adjust the incline.
