"The no-frills design of the Wahoo Kickr Run, plus a magical mode that allows it to track your pace without touching a button, is what makes it the most real-pavement-seeming treadmill I have ever run on. I'm admittedly 20 pounds heavier than I was when I was clocking 15-mile weekend runs routinely, but even though I'm somewhat past my prime at the moment, the freeing feeling of not having to pay attention to a steady (and often aspirational) pace makes this a more natural experience."
"White-glove installation is definitely required for a machine of this size and weight (and expected at this cost), and two nice gentlemen had my review unit set up in less than an hour. That is, except for the power: While the company initially told me that a dedicated 15 to 20 amp circuit was required to run the machine, I wasn't aware until after reading the manual that it needs to be an outlet without a GFCI installed."
The Wahoo Kickr Run uses a no-frills design and an automatic pace-tracking mode to create a remarkably pavement-like indoor running experience. The treadmill removes the need to monitor a fixed target pace, producing a more natural, freeing run even for users carrying extra weight or past peak fitness. The unit costs around $7,000 and requires white-glove installation. The machine needs a dedicated 15–20 amp circuit without a GFCI. The treadmill is shorter than many gym models, has front wheels to adjust grade and lateral tilt, and includes a rubbery pad to hold devices.
