Are you going to have the headroom in the shed for a treadmill, especially with incline???
Hard to say whether you will get the use out of it, I have one, and as a single parent is my only option for an early or late run but I prefer the turbo over the treadmill in most cases.
I have started doing a zwift half marathon training plan to force myself to do some more structured workouts as just doing distance on it is pretty dull given it doesn't have the same interactions, variety or rewards that the cycling side of zwift has.

Any thoughts on whether a good treadmill is worth the investment? Obviously prefer to run outside, but baby 2 arriving imminently, and we have just had a 3.5m x 3m shed landed in the back garden I intend to use 50% of as a home gym setup to get stuff out of the house and remove the need to set up and break down kit after each session (bike permanently on turbo, selection of kettlebells, resistance bands etc).
Missus is bought into the idea of being able to sneak in a brisk walk between naps, when it’s dark or miserable outside, and I’m trying to cling onto the massive fitness gains I saw off the back of a marathon block last year.
But €2500 for a Nordic track 1750 is a lot of money…
