I have a treadmill in my basement and I ran a mile. My legs hurt a little. It doesn’t usually happen to me. Is it because I haven’t ran that much in like 2-3 months?

Of course it is
No way, that’s way to much pounding on a non natural surface, I cant think of a better way of getting injured.
If your the only one using the treadmill it would seem okay to be barefoot if you like. But, it is probably not good for the joints and stuff in your ankles, feet, and knees. Running shoes would make the impact much easier on your body.
mota holiya ke?
yea its fine, as long as the treadmill is good quality and won’t break under the pressure (running bare feet exerts more pressure due to the reduced surface area)
and as long as you find it comfotrable
You’re gonna get blisters like I did.
Yes, but I recomend a carpeted treadbelt like you can get on some Healthriders. they make belts that will fit most treadmills so you could get one for just about whatever you have.
Running barefoot a mile is going to hurt!
You need support even if it is just running on a treadmill
