Calling all those who can’t decide whether they’re workaholics or workoutaholics: the Hammacher Schlemmer Treadmill Desk is here. This specialized work surface is multitasking taken to a whole new level.

Runners, beware--this desk is designed specifically for walking while doing office work. With a [U-shaped design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leandesk) that will stay atop of any treadmill, the Hammacher Schlemmer Treadmill Desk has all the features of a [traditional desk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spout), and even comes with cup holders. One thing it doesn’t come with: a treadmill.
