For those of you who want visual stimulation when you run but don't want to jog through crowded city streets and parks, the Zebris FDM T Treadmill will be your new favorite toy. Complete with a [giant LCD screen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matrix-fitness) that displays [simulated environments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kinneta), this machine gives you all the pleasure of wilderness without taking one step out of your front door.

Though the Zebris FDM T Treadmill does seem pretty revolutionary, nothing to me beats a good brisk run on a real trail. That being said, I would like to take this thing out for a test spin. Hopefully there are no piles of simulated dog poo.
