Considering its running on a treadmill is it actually moving forward or just bouncing up and down while the mat under it moves

relative motion. Haven't been in physics class for a couple of years but the gist is that the two things you describe are fundamentally the same.

When you are walking forward how do you know that you are actually moving, and that it isn't the world that is moving under you while you stay in the same place?
