I was wondering how many of you run on a treadmill by choice. What I mean by that is that you are using it not just to escape cold weather and bad roads.

The reason I am asking it that many of the people that I know, very good athletes, very well schooled athletes use a treadmill by choice because they feel it is easier on your joints.

The track coach at my school, who coaches National Champs, says that he thinks it is harder on your joints.

I researched on the internet and could not get solid data either way.

So, I was wondering what all of you think.

Thanks in advance,

Ruth
