The issue is not motion, the vestibular system cannot measure velocity, only linear acceleration and rotation. The only issue is while you are accelerating in a horizontal direction in VR, but you are not actually acccelerating (remember acceleration is absolute not relative). But I don't expect this will be much of an issue. We don't have a problem speeding up or slowing down on a treadmill.
