I do roadwork 2 or 3x/week. On off days, though, I do the elliptical for 45 minutes to an hour. I'm older than most of you and my knees aren't so good. Every few months I end up doing the elliptical for a couple of weeks solid (no roadwork) just because my knees / feet / shins get so sore.

Whats the elliptical? Thanks in advance.

you have to run on a incline using the treadmill to get the same effect of running on flat road, so I don't even think its possible for a treadmill to give you the same effect as hillwork or running up a steep slope during roadwork

Elliptical trainer. Like a treadmill but the motion is like cross-country skiing. Low-impact but still an excellent, whole-body cardio workout; the resistance is variable. I do sprints on the elliptical trainer the same as I do when running -- easy pace for a few minutes, 30- or 60-second sprint, easy pace, sprint, etc.

can that be done on a tread mill?

I personally get more out of a treadmil because it keeps me at the same pace... when i run outisde im usually jus stuntin.. I work on the Treadmil.

Keeeps you consistent even when you speed up.. you won't slow down without knowing like everyone does when they jog...

Throw some music in with a water bottle and your set.
