Yep.
Sold it on GumTree and it left yesterday.
I started running (if you can call what I do to get my self around in active wear 'running') on the streets before work about a year ago, listening to RN news and thinking through the day ahead - it's become my routine. I reckon I've used the treadmill less than half a dozen times in the last twelve months.
Where it was going to go when we finally renovate was also an issue - problem solved!
I'd had a couple of inquiries but finally from someone serious. He asked if I'd drop the price by a fair whack and I agreed.
He and his friend arrived about 10am. Geoff had removed the study door to make it easier to get out and lo and behold - it still didn't fit!! We spent the next hour YouTubing "How to dismantle a treadmill", undoing bolts and unplugging wires. At one stage, I thought they were about to thank me for my time and leave - but no, there we were, complete strangers, sweating, jammed into the overcrowded study and working as a well-oiled team to get this sucker out!!
It may have been a tad quicker had Geoff not simultaneously been attending to a cherry picker and a tradie in the backyard who was fixing one of the blinds on the shed (another story...)
Anyway, an hour later we'd done it! We managed to get it out in two parts - also very tricky! - and into their van. Phew!
Here's a glimpse of what space looks like!! Maybe my dream of minimalism can come true!
