Correct. My thoughts so far are: A) The desk will be high enough that I can reach under and hit the start, B) I'll build in a trap door, C) I'll remove the entire instrament cluster, splice in some extra wire and mount it off to the side.

I live for danger, It keeps one on their toes. Don't forget I'm not planning on Jogging or running just walking at a very slow steady pace. Also I selected this particular treadmill partially on the length of it's tread. It's longer than it looks in that photo. Plus the desk will have a U-shaped cutout where I stand to add some extra room.

Yes and no. I will be attaching one or two monitors using monitor arms, and I have a wireless keyboard/mouse that I will be using with the desk. The tower case will remain safely on the floor away from the treadmill.

I just brought it home last night, it's still in the box, so no. However I am walking a mile each morning if that counts for anything...
