Can this be used on the ground as a runner or is it too thin?

It's pretty thick but would depend on how much foot traffic it will get. Also, it's slick...not sure how to anchor to floor. We used as stone backdrop and that worked well.

You can use this on the ground or over a tree stand. It works good, it just takes a little time to set it up.

I think it would be too light and would just slide unless you attached it somehow to the floor. Ours is outside and anchored into the stone driveway and works perfectly!

If you had real level ground you possibly could use it outside, but the way the legs are made you could only use on level ground.

I only used this device for TV. However, based on its size, shape and weight I doubt that it would stay in place while walking and I'd be surprised if it did while running.

Not really. It's good for walking on an incline but I'd look around for a better one. This one seems to be weak in the rear for running.

It's not really designed for running. The wheels are hard plastic, not rubber. It's more a jogging style look as opposed to function

Yes it definitely can be used, thanks to its unique extended centre column. You can almost touch the ground by positioning the center column at a lower angle. Hope that helps.

It should hold up to 250 if walking. I would not recommend anyone over 190-200 lbs using it for running. And the runway is fairly short, so yourstride needs to be considered as well.

Just threw it on the floor to see ... in my opinion, it looks like a throw on the floor. It wont stay flat unless no one walks on it. Perhaps if you put a different backing on it suitable for rugs?

yes absolutely.....It's strong enough to be over a room or two...ps - I wear it on my waist when I run. No issues! It's pretty much awesome!!!!

It would be too thin for that in my opinion. I used it as a boarder in a quilt and you could see other fabrics when I would lay this on top.

I have not attempted to run on it but I would say for safety sake that it would not be a good machine for running as much as walking at a face pace. It is a perfect machine for those who like read or work while walking.

I would probably not use it for running because it is meant for lifting aid.

This one is too heavy and bulky for running with, in my opinion. I should get one that is much smaller and lighter than this. It would bounce around and drive you crazy.

not a thin carpet because you can feel it when you step on it or walk on the carpet. Nice somewhat thick maybe carpet might be okay.

You can lift the whole item out and not use the runner. I am considering returning it as I don't know if it will hold up in the long run.
