AM - got in about 6.5 miles on the Alter-G treadmill. I was on the stationary bike for about 2 miles prior to my turn on the Alter-G - so I will count this as 7 miles total. The tech assisting me on this machine which is at a different location/facility, insisted that I should not exceed 65% of my body weight given the description of the injury - So I was zipping/floating along at 6:30 pace. A little tight but no discomfort or pain when I started - but again the shorts and the machine harness thing is a bit constricting. Very pleased that I can do this type of cross training.

18.5 cents a minute ain't too shabby for a machine that is, what, 30K? Glad to see you are able to get on one. I hope it helps.
