Question Treadmill Questions?

I have found that I can use the treadmill, like some would use OHA's. I hop on after a meal and bingo...BG drops. So, I have a few questions for fellow treadmillers, as it is not the most exciting activity on the planet!

1) What else are you doing while you are treading? (reading, music, TV (I have to have it up pretty loud), meditating, motivational cd's?
2) Have you found that increasing speed helps to lower BG faster, or is slow and steady better?
3) How many miles/how long do you tread...mph?
4) What is the most drop in BG you have ever seen?
5) Does treading in the AM spike your BG?
6) Do you ever splurge, knowing you are going to tread it off? How would this work on Holidays...can you tell I am thinking ahead?

Actually, I want to ask for some Treadmill related gifts for Christmas. I know I am going to be treading daily for as long as my legs hold out. (I have a bad knee and 3.2 mph is about my limit so far.) I have been told that I will get less positive impact on BG as I get fitter. Great, does that mean I will have to go 3-4 miles at a time?

Questions...questions!!
