Is running on a treadmill as good for you as road running?
The most important part of being outside for Thomas, however, is the mental aspect. Now that he’s not training seven days a week on the track , running has become a mental health tool.
From a purely psychological point of view, you may feel like you’ve got to move faster because the ground beneath you is moving. Because treadmills tend to be bouncier, it might also feel easier to move forwards compared with running on the road, where you’ve got to propel yourself forward. Then there’s the fact that every few yards, you have to move slightly; we’ve got to dodge dogs, go round corners, step around broken paving stones or jump onto grass. Nearly everywhere has a slight incline or decline. If you keep your treadmill on flat the whole time, you miss out on those cardio and muscle-building tweaks and it can be challenging to transition to road racing if you’ve never had to attempt even a small hill climb.
