Subject: RE: Treadmill in unfinished basement? You can use a masonary bit and screw (Tapcon is one brand name ) to attach nearly anything to concrete if you choose to mount a box or a stud.. Another option is to run SO (indoor/outdoor ) wiring or just run a high quality extension cord with one end cut off. You are saying this is a temporary installation, so I wouldn't worry too much about it as long as the wire/cord that you use is big enough gauge to be able to handle the amp draw from the treadmill.
Putting an electrical box on a floor joist would be a good option as you mentioned also, as long as your treadmill plug will reach that far.
