"Just don’t abandon everything you’ve ever learned because of something someone said on the internet." - Eric McGinnis

Hi PJC,

I personally am a very big fan and preacher of treadmill workouts. For multiple reasons;

1) Allowing athletes to handle/manage higher weekly run volumes
2) Injury prevention and injury management
3) Aiding the speed of recovery after run sessions in order for following days work to be less hampered.

I personally hit the treadmill anywhere between 1 - 3 times in a week. Generally either a second run on a double run day is on the treadmill or a specific high tempo session that requires a hard day following I'll often jump on the TM. So for me personally it really depends on what type of load my body is under, how fragile I feel my body is and/or how much benefit I will get out of running TM versus road for a given session. A number of my social media posts go further into detail of my TM running, the reasons and some posts contain video of TM running.

Enjoy it and good luck in 2015.
