This is my first post and hopefully I find the help I need here. Back ground info: Was active duty army, for a while I was running upto 8 miles at a time (not really by choice.) I am going into a physical fitness field (I am going for a corprate fitness trainer w/ a minor in nutrition and a BA also in psycholoy.) I have already taken a few weight training classes plus been working out off and on for over 10 years. I am 26 pregnat with #2. I enjoy running short distance (1-2miles) at about 6mph pace (8-10 min miles). Here is somethings I am thinking of when looking at treadmills. *It would be in the livingroom (so my 2 yr old can watch tv while I run. We have a spot we can put it) *I will be walking (most the time on an incline) hopefully at least 30 mins a day. *I will be running on it at least 2-3 times a week for about 30 mins *I weight normally about 140lb (when not pregnant. *My husband will also be using it, he weights about 160lbs. *He will probly use it 3 times a week 30 mins or so(hopefully more once he get motivated) He also use to run in the army. Something that I would really like: *2 user profiles- the type that keeps track of weekly totals / monthly/ all totals. *Heart rate strap/ intensity workout (not nessasary) The main thing is price range. I know there is no way I can talk my husband into anything over $2000. He is actully wanting to stay below $1000. But I told him from reviews and research anything below $1000 looks to be more for just walking, they wont last as long ect. So some research later and we are thinking maybe the Sole brand (looking faverable right now)or Smooth. But any sujestions from expirenced users would be great. Also we both have use treadmills before at the gyms.
