I came across an article yesterday about apps for runners, and it mentioned the Peloton app. You know, the company with the exercise bike that costs as much as a used car, featuring hyper-fit people with money oozing out of their pores, with their dedicated workout room surrounded with sparkling windows so they can gaze upon the tranquil great outdoors as they pedal and contemplate what else to spend their money on? Yeah, that one.
Turns out that the Peloton app also has a feature for treadmill running. Seeing as how treadmill running is just one small step up from unspeakable, sadistic torture to me, I was all ears. It also turns out that right now, Peloton has a special of two months free if you sign up for one month at $19.49 plus tax.
I couldn’t find many reviews of the treadmill workouts, so I am just going to have to bite the bullet, go for it, and give it a whirl. Then I will write my own review, so anyone else who hates treadmill running will know if this is worth the money. It just so happens that I was already planning a treadmill run tomorrow morning, so I will test drive it and give you my first impressions. I know, I know, you will be chewing your nails in anticipation, right? 🙂
I believe treadmills should be classified as torture devices. Last night, I had planned to go running at a well-lit park, but I decided it was a bit chilly, so I headed to the gym instead. Bad idea! As soon as I fired up the treadmill, I was instantly and thoroughly bored out of my mind.
