is this treadmill good for running or is more geared towards walkers?

I'm not a huge runner but I've gone through running phases and it's been great! It goes up to 10mph I think and it's sturdy. My husband runs on it and says "it's the greatest purchase we've made". We've had it for about 4 years now and still love it.

Walking or a light jog it seems heavy duty but all tread mills are made of a lot of plastic. I have ran on it and it seemed OK but when I want to run I use my gazell

it is good for running and walking it has different types of mode that will help you lose weight I have it almost 5 years now, I never had any problem plus very easy to set up , these machines are not commercial made which means ok for residential use , should lost a very long time for a family use. it is also very affordable compare to so many other machines out there.

You can go as fast or as slow as you would like. It isn't a running motion, but a gliding motion. I go slower but my wife goes pretty fast and gets a good work out. She runs 3 to 5 times a week, and has run in marathons. On cold days she'll use this over our tread mill for a good work out. I hope this helps.

I would buy a higher end treadmill if I was still running. This is a great little treadmill for our purposes. We walk about 30 minutes a day each and it is perfect for this. Serious running needs a sturdier treadmill.

It's fully dependent on how fast you're running on the treadmill I find everything is more difficult, but honestly my eyes not as sharp as they once were, so running non-treadmill is ok, because you just slow your pace while distracted.

This has been a great treadmill for us. I really enjoy it but I know everyone is different but it has been wonderful for us. Hope this helps...i read many reveiws before even buying this one last year and so far it hasn't disappointed us.

The adjustment on the machine is quite fine. At one extreme you end up nearly running and at the other you just walk quite quickly. The mechanism is "contact free", i.e. moving parts don't rub against each other and probably don't wear out.

You can do a slow jog. I would never run with this stroller. Its got smaller wheels and no brakes. Its an amazing stroller but a brisk walk is how I would use it.

Oops. Sorry. I thought you were asking about a different model. This is a good treadmill. I walk on it at 4 mph and there is no rattle or anything so I don't see you having a problem running on it.

There's no way you'd be able to play video games while walking on a manual treadmill. You have to hold on to the handles or you'll go flying off. You'd be better off saving up for a regular treadmill if you really want to have hands-free walking.

Yes, the running feature works well for walking and hiking. If you're also a runner, however, then walks will really pull down the average speed in your history. You can work around this by creating custom spreadsheets and downloading the data off the watch, but there is not a separate "walk" feature on the watch.

I mainly use it for sidewalks but occasionly go on a slight dirt path and it does ok. It's definitely more for pathed walks though.

I watch tv while I walk on the Proform 790T. I have to turn up the tv volume a little, but not enough to bother people in a connecting room. It does get a little louder the faster you go, so if you plan on running on your treadmill you may have a problem.

running on it everyday will wear it out very quickly. this treadmill is great, but not for serious runners. may be a little too flimsy for what you need.

You definitely havwant to use both hands when walking on this treadmill. It is manual cheaper equipmenthan and is nothing like a treadmill in the gym. However, I like it because I live in an apartment and it works for me since all I use it for is light walking and running. Also, it is easy to fold up.

No. This isn't the kind of treadmill you can move in and out of place. It's very heavy.
