Just completed first run🙂does it matter that I am doing it on my treadmill. I live in the sticks and it’s dark when I get home. Just feel safer in doors.

It still counts! You’ll love it when you can outdoors though!

It doesn't matter at all - whatever works for you.... but try running outside when you are able to- it's much more fun in my opinion! 😄

Some people only run on treadmill. The fact that you are starting is all that matters 👏

Well done.

It is recommended that a treadmill has gradient set to a minimum of 1° to better simulate running outdoors, otherwise the transition can be difficult.
