Slowly increase your distance.about 10 percent a week.Three times a week over a period of several weeks，try to run longer distances and walk less. You may start out feeling like a sorry sack of potatoes，but you’ll probably be surprised at how quickly you can progress.

“A runner friend of mine spent a good year hounding me to try it，”recalls Linda McCall，a 35一year--old teacher from St. Louis.“I couldn’t imagine dragging my poor body down the street，but I did want to lose 15 pounds，so a couple of years ago I finally went out one day early in the morning. I walked a half mile，then ran a block，then walked home, The next day, I ran a little farther,and the next day farther still. Before long，I was running for 30 minutes straight·which I continue to do three times a week. I'll never run a marathon,but I feel great.And I’ve lost 20 pounds一not 15!”
住在圣路易一位三十五歲名叫琳達(dá).麥柯的老師回憶道:"我有一位跑步的朋友嘮叨了整整一年叫我去跑步，我無法想象自己拖著臃腫的身軀上街跑步會(huì)是什么模樣，但是我真的想減掉十五磅。所以在幾年前的某個(gè)清晨，我終于開始外出運(yùn)動(dòng)。我先走了半英里，再跑一個(gè)街區(qū);然后就走路回家。隔天，我跑得遠(yuǎn)一點(diǎn)，再接下來的一天，又跑得更遠(yuǎn)一點(diǎn)。不久以后，我已可以一口氣跑三十分鐘，且每個(gè)星期持續(xù)跑三次。我永遠(yuǎn)不可能去跑馬拉松，但是我感覺很好。而亙我現(xiàn)在已減掉二十磅，而非十五磅!”
