I live in a tiny townhouse. The only place I could put a treadmill probably is the "porch" we just 3-seasoned. Guess what season it isn't seasoned against, LOL. I can "cheat" and heat the outdoors; my husband works out there now and we open the door to the house so the heat gets out there, it will just be a bit chillier but that is probably good for exercising so I don't overheat :-)
