Let me start by saying I am not a natural runner. As far as cardio goes, I’d rather do a short burst of burpees (and I don’t love doing those, either) than jog around the block. It would take a colossal shift in my daily routines like say, the one brought on by a year-long closure of, well, almost everything to pique my interest in the activity.
I bring this up because it’s nearly impossible to separate my review of the Peloton Tread the new, seriously souped-up treadmill by the makers of the world’s most coveted at-home exercise bike from the current state of the world. Pre-pandemic, I was a regular (OK, semi-regular) at spin studios and functional-training classes. During the pandemic, one Ontario-wide stay-at-home order turned into another and then another and my world shrunk considerably. Before, at-home exercise equipment was, at least for my lifestyle, nice to have. Now, it feels necessary.
