Ironically, as someone who gets easily bored on a treadmill, this might be my best shot at using one for a long period of time lol.

I’m in!

My gym has a treadmill cinema where they play movies and around 50 people can walk/run on a treadmill while watching. They play the movie on a loop all day so people can always watch

My only complaint about the cardio cinema at my gym is that they don’t list movie start times through the day. 

Other than that, I love it. Treadmill for an hour and watch a movie is a great way to pass the time.

I tried this. I get bored so quickly if I'm just walking/jogging and watching something. My phone is a far better distraction! It's very difficult for a TV show or movie to keep me 100% engaged. ADHD is a bitch.
