Who am I kidding? It's great!
I was talking with my ladies at CJP and one's friend was trying to get rid of this treadmill she had no use for. I half jokingly raised my hand and said, "I'll take it!" She looked at me and asked if I was serious and I got serious real quick with a "yeah!" and the deal was done.
I called this lady with the treadmill and left a message telling her how I heard about it and that I'm interested. I wasn't expecting much, since when someone's actively looking to give something (so awesome) away for free, usually they will pick up the phone or call back right away. Well, a few hours went by and my hopes were dwindling downward. I was starting to accept that I wouldn't get a free treadmill, and she called!
So Sunday, my brother and fiance are going to help me move it into our bedroom. I'm really happy! I'm just crossing my fingers that it'll work - because I'll want to test it before we bring it home, of course. It would be a pain if we got it all set up just to have it not work. The lady says it works fine, but I still want to make sure.
Yay! I'll get to have something I've been wanting for a few years, I didn't have to pay a dime and I will have no excuse not to work out!
And you may be asking, why are you putting a treadmill in your bedroom? Well, I'll tell ya! 1) The convenience of watching TV while working out attracts me & 2) there isn't a much better place anywhere else. I know it will fit in our room and the downstairs is sub-ground-level so there's no questions on weight distribution.
And I think the only thing left is to consider buying a house with 3 bedrooms and/or a basement to put it in the future. :) I've got this all worked out in my head, so hopefully the world won't throw me a huge curve ball anytime soon.
