Abstract
A treadmill and desk assembly which allows a user to comfortably exercise while simultaneously running or walking. The desk includes a work panel, an adjustable leg, and a base frame. The work panel is connected normal to the adjustable leg, which in turn is connected to and supported by the base frame. The treadmill includes a first guiding member, a second guiding member, a front housing, a belt, a front roller, and a rear roller. The first guiding member and the second guiding member are adjacently connected to the front housing. The front roller and the rear roller are connected in between the first guiding member and the second guiding member. The belt is tensionably positioned about the front roller and the rear roller, thus allowing for relative rotation. The front housing is sized to fit and interlock with a treadmill-receiving cavity of the desk.
