No, I didn't faceplant on one as a child and have the skin rubbed off and now as an adult absolutely hates the things for no real logical reason, I don't know what you're talking about

There are perfectly logical reasons outside of face planting to hate them. I get that the weather can be shitty outside sometimes, but I’ll take some scenery over a treadmill any day.

This is it for me. I have friends who train for halfs and marathons on a treadmill, and I struggle to focus beyond a mile and a half or so. It's not the cardio element, it's just the sheer boredom factor.

Getting out and about even in gash weather is infinitely preferable from my perspective. I'd much rather smash in six miles on tarmac than one or two on the treaddy. Plus, you can't rack up Pokémon Go distance on a treadmill.
