Treadmill Needed

JDsmommy · March 10, 2008

Hey people. I was just banded on February 11th and am so excited to get healthy. I'm a single mother of a small child. I need to get in exercise but it seems virtually impossible with him. We've been taking walks when the weather permits but I cannot get much speed going while walking with him. I really cannot afford a gym and feel guilty about having him in daycare all day long while at work, only to take him to another daycare at the gym! So, I'm looking for a reasonably priced treadmill! I'm in Kansas City, Missouri..so if any of you guys have a treadmil you no longer want/need and would like to get rid of it..let me know. Thanks!!

Check out Craigslist.com. There are usually a few treadmills on there each day. Most for not too much.

How about one of those jogging strollers? Easier to store than a treadmill.

I can't believe I stumbled on your thread. I'm in the Kansas City, KS area though I'm under 5 miles from the KCMO city market. My DH has been pushing me to sell my treadmill and I was going to try to put it up on Craigs List this week.

It is an I-Fit Treadmill with a padded belt. I don't really want rid of it but DH doesn't think I use it enough and we are short on funds right now. It originally cost around $900. But I haven't had time to research what it is worth used. I can PM you with my phone number if you'd like me to tell you what I find out and if you'd like to come by and try it out. How old is your child? I have a 4 year old son and a full time job. I can definitely relate to your not wanting to move him from one daycare to another just to work out.
