Treadmill!

Woo! I love my new treadmill! This was a dream of mine for years. I always wanted one. And now I have one! Sweet little Brad helped me put it together (which was so necessary, since you have to lift it and its very heavy). It took us about...an hour to put together. I did 45 minutes/2.25 miles/335 calories tonight!

Tomorrow, I am planning to re-organize the basement slightly so that the equipment fits a little better in there without constantly having to fold up the table. But I'm so pumped.

It is a Weslo Cadence G40 Treadmill, from Walmart. It was $277 - tax free since I bought it at the NH store. It came perfectly packaged, no damage what-so-ever. And its actually very sturdy. The motor is a little louder than the gym ones but not so loud I can't hear my TV over it. There are lots of speeds (this thing can go faster than I could ever run). It has a little safety clip (won't run without it hooked on the machine - by magnet). It's not that long of a cord though so I don't wear it, I just leave it hooked on there. It has pockets at the top for your water, ipod, whatever. And a shelf for a book :) Tells you distance, calories burned, heart rate, speed. I just love it!

Here are some pictures of it!

A big thank you to Bryan Fisher, who pointed out to me via his blog post that Walmart has affordable exercise equipment! :)
