However, I will not be using it for a couple of days as I went and twisted my ankle yesterday while walking. I moved to one side to get out of the way of a large pick up truck and stood on a stone and slipped. The guy in the pick up truck stopped and made sure I was okay, luckily he just rolled down his window and didn't get out of the truck, I felt a right fool.
Anyway, I only suffered minor gravel rash on my knee, but I twisted my ankle, and as the day progressed it got worse. So no walking for me for a couple of days to let my foot rest up.
This is an old song:

This is no toy! It'a a valuable piece of equipment that really helps us keep fit at home. Good for you.
I hope your ankle is better soon!
As owner of various types of gym equipment at various periods in my life, I'd strongly suggest you invest in a treadmill mat. My first treadmill I didn't have one, didn't think I needed it, and used it enough to wear a hole in the carpet underneath.
we have a rug underneath the treadmill on top of the carpet to protect the carpet.
I had a treadmill once upon a time and it got a TON of use! I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Remember the RICE formula for your ankle: rest, ice, compression and elevate :)
Our treadmill is in storage right now and so I am gingerly making my walk over icy patches and snow banks. So looking forward to getting it set up once again.
God bless.
I hope your ankle is healing up nicely for the holidays. May I ask what you meant about moving to an "adult neighborhood?" It is actually my hope to one day live in the UK.
That'll be handy over the winter.
