Few years back, Michael Wardian won the Tussey Mountainback 50-miler ultra having trained almost entirely on a treadmill.
Article excerpt:
Despite multiple national championships, being named USA Track and Field’s Ultra Runner of the year three years in a row, and qualifying for the Olympic Marathon Trials three times, Wardian is not a full-time runner. The 37-year-old is an international ship broker in Arlington, Va., and does most of his training on a treadmill in his basement while watching his two young children.
“All that climbing in the basement paid off,” he said. “I was running strong on the hills today.”
