Hiking Treadmill

Here is a new gadget for any fitness Geeks out there. Check out this link:

Basically what you do is you map out a path in Google maps, upload it to the treadmill and then the treadmill adjusts its incline to match the incline of the map. So if you want to try climbing Mount Everest in the comfort of your own home, this try this out. But maybe Mount Everest is too steep - the treadmill has a maximum of 40 degree incline. Doesn't matter. Its still pretty cool. But honestly, I don't like treadmills. I prefer to get out into the real world and exercise.
