Boris Johnson recently announced further restrictions to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and the UK is now moving towards a full lockdown. Exercise outside is being limited to once a day and alone or in the company of members of your household.
In this climate, it is understandable that people may be looking at staying at home completely, especially if you live with vulnerable individuals. This is why treadmills are quickly becoming sought after, with lots of runners looking to invest.
Treadmills, however, can be quite expensive and if you know you will be going back to running outside the minute the lockdown finishes, committing to such investment may not be very appealing.
If this is you, then maybe you might want to think about renting one just for the time being, so here are some options for you to browse around.

They even offer a special treadmill with a desk for people who like to be doing some exercise while doing work, which will come in useful now that most of us are working from home.
