Humans Ran Into Evolution

Yeah. Every day I'm on that damn treadmill, I think to myself, "I've evolved to this!":
"But new research suggests that developing the ability to run - especially long distances -- was actually more of an instrumental step in the evolution of humans. "
If we 'evolved' through running, why did we domesticate animals to ride and pull our wagons - which we rode in? Why did we invent the bicycle, the motorcycle, the car and the airplane? And what about the escalator and the elevator? Apparently our ancestors would be pretty disappointed in us, huh?

Well, I guess we invented the treadmill too - and without it, I'd just be a lump of clay in the evolution of man I guess.
