Jace:
I think it is something about how when you're running on an actual incline the ground isn't moving under you, so your foot can grip the ground properly or something like that.

Treadmills suck anyway.

No, I'll modify that. Treadmills suck, compared to actual running.

I've never really understood the point of running on an inclined treadmill. You never actually climb, after all, so you're not working against gravity.

In cycling, the road > rollers > turbo trainers > exercise "bikes", IMHO.

Exactly. All it does is mis-align your feet. It offers no help with the actual running uphill training. XD

Uphill running absolutely rules.
