Reading on Treadmill

[Anonymous]

Anybody read while walking on a treadmill? Looking for book ideas to see if I can make this work. (Don’t do audiobooks.)

Um, no way.

Reading is really hard on a treadmill. You want to run and read or walk and read?

You should really try an audio book once. Also, I've read books and listened to the audiobook at the same time (for harder literary-type books) and it was really enjoyable for me. That might work on the treadmill, but again, only if you are walking. I can't imagine reading a book while running.

Sorry realized you said walking...ignore running comments. My bad.

I walk while I read on my kindle all the time. I actually find that it helps me retain information and read for longer periods.

Kindle all the way, friend!

Yes I often did this. Either used the magazine rack or switched which hand I held the book in every five minutes or so, depending on how well the book stayed open on its own.

Not on a treadmill, but all the time on an eliptical or bike.

But how do you hold the book and swing your arm so you get the steps?

Audio Books or YouTube.
