Just my luck...

I told you that I was using my treadmill again and quite successfully, I might add. For some reason, the rollers had loosen up and the belt was too far over on the left and it was rubbing and making a crazy noise. As a temporary measure, I trimmed about 1/2" of the belt off and that seemed to do the trick. Yesterday when my hubby saw his utility knife on my table, he asked what I had used it for. Short version, he insists on getting his tools out and fixing the roller so it wont slide to one side. What happens next? He broke it and how it either has to have a part ordered or even be replaced. Grrrr.

Anywho, in the mean time, what is your favorite treadmill type piece of equipment? I just might go ahead and replace it, as it is about ten years old, even if it is a NordicTrac. Do any of you have those ones that are either elliptical or the glider type (think Tony Little)? I'd like to know what really works best for someone like me, specifically baby boomer, bad knees, overweight and not very athletic.

Let me know.

I really like an eliptical and would love to replace my treadmill with one.
Have a blessed day
