Yo, was just searching on your web site and decided to load the RSS feed, but it is not working with my webbrowser (I’m looking at it with Google Chrome) any trick to bypass this?

@Emma, thanks for your comment! I actually sold my treadmill desk after about a year; I really loved it but we have a small house and I needed the space in my office. I sold it to a friend who is making good use of it, I highly recommend treadmill desks!

Just wondering, 2 years on, whether you are still on your treadmill, Corinne?
I’ve only just found this blog and am fascinated by the idea.
Have you persevered?

Hi I came across your webpage by mistake, I was searching for New Designer Fashion when I found your website, I must say your webpage is very cool I just love the theme, its astounding!. I'm in a bit of a rush right now to totally absorb your blog but I have saved the location of it and also signed up for your RSS feeds. I will be back when I have more time. Bravo for a great website.

Nicely done.

I hooked up my Playstation 3 in front of my long- neglected treadmill, and now I get about 60 minutes of walking (110+ minutes on my days off) every day. I go at 1 mph, it’s a little tricky but I don’t think I am in danger of hurting myself. Been about 3 weeks now, lost 4 pounds. Feel better too.

I have wrist weights also.

Everyone just be creative. What will motivate you to spend more time on the treadmill? If you like computer games, try what I did. Like movies? Subscribe to something like Netflix and only have a DVD player for the treadmill screen. Like to read? Read on the Treadmill.

Cheers

Of course, another innovative idea from my friend Corinne! I heard about your cool innovation again from the GLD listserv; you should patent a translator version of this cool thing and come up with a snazzy name!

And you are so right — the outdoor workout sometimes just gets pushed to later and later in the day. Happened to me this weekend. I might have to look into this…
