Walk Before You Run

Every morning when I leave my neighborhood, I see folks, usually from age 30-50, jogging. Now first off, it takes dedication to get up and go jogging. I applaud them for it. However, some of these folks look like they are dying. Their steps are painful. They are overweight and look like they have made a resolution to start jogging, so body be damned, they are going to get it done. I say, lets start off getting the diet in order, and WALK first. I guarantee once they lose a few pounds and they walk for 30min a few days a week, it will be a lot less painful for them, and they wont burn out. Hell, they could just always walk, diet and they will be fine. A fast walk would be a lot easier on the joints, and it's something that you can do no matter how old you are.
