   Get a MANUAL treadmill! You can get one for under a hundred bucks!

   You can get ones that don’t rely on any electricity whatsoever. I have one of those but I’m afraid I can’t remember the brand as it’s locked away in the shed (so not being used!). The way non-electric ones work is that you control the movement of the belt by walking/running on it. So you don’t get different speed settings on the machine.
