The moon has a sixth of earth gravity. The force you would feel would be very small and the whole point of this is to increase the resistance against the wall you’re running on.

If you’ve ever been on a spinning wheel at a carnival where they move the whole thing 90 degrees it would be a bit like that.

The track would actually be straight, so you wouldn’t have to compensate for turning even.

I’m not saying you wouldn’t want to switch directions, but there shouldn’t be some imperative to do so often.
