RiRi Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 I just downloaded the app and I'm curious to know if a treadmill can Be used or if it's easier to workout outside while using this app? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TrishE Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 It really what you prefer. Running is running running outside is great, I love it. It feels more open and there's more to look at. But running on a treadmill lets you run a little easier when its storming or its 100 degrees out. Lots of people are doing both. Switching from on to the other can be difficult but doable. Best of luck to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KellyAnn Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Hi there RiRi, Welcome on here. You can do this!!!!!! Treadmill is great of thats how you want to do it? Just remember that a treadmill will help tompropel you forward. Running outside is harder and preferred by most. Give yourself a challenge though and maybe add an incline to it?????? Keep us posted here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristi35 Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 I also just downloaded the app and will be using a treadmill. As a mother of four it's hard to get outside. Any suggestions on what settings to use for this? I am very new to running, and often joke I can't even run to the mailbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephlams Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 I'm going to be on a treadmill too. It's too hot during the day and I've been having a lot of health issues with the heat. I'm hoping that running in an AC gym will help me get started and then when it's cooler and I'm in slightly better shape I can move outside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TrishE Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Totally understand that. This heat has killed so much of my endurance. Unfortunately I have no choice but to run outside. Enjoy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KellyAnn Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Hi Kristi, Treadmill is great too. Just remember that it will help to propel you forward, so make sure before you dona race, you try running outside too. Running on pavement is harder. But.......... All treadmills are different. Try and increase your speed too. I run between 4.5 and 5.5. But mine might be slower than yours. Good luck to you all and Happy Running!!!

Bethilda1 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 I just did week 1 day 1 last night on a treadmill. I ended up walking and running both at a 3.2 speed no incline (but I have been sedentary for more than 3 years and have flat arches and a toddler that make it tough to run outside). I expect I will increase the speed and add incline as I get in better shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
