website for vicarious running

[Sweet G]

Hi, I have just bought a treadmill for my small second bedroom but it is very boring to stare at the wall when using it. Is there a website that shows film of a road or track from the perspective of the runner, so that with my laptop & projector I could display it on the wall and get the impression I am running up a hill/ across a field/ in a stadium etc??? Hope that makes sense, found it difficult to put an accurate question title and description. Thanks

why does the vicar have to join you

what you need are some life size dolls and a giant coathanger
hang one on either end of the hanger
connect thin canes their legs and tape them to your legs so that all the legs move together (for added realism you could do the same with the arms.

then set off on the treadmill
you'll feel as if you are running in a group ... and won't have time to stare at the scenery

Or
Put the treadmill in the garage, and run outside! Completely free, uses no electricity, and different things to see every time

Connect it up to electricity to generate ur power and run all of it incl tv to watch Olympics......u could even be in training for the 2012 Olys

Why don't you just go & run up a hill/ across a field etc ?
