Has the idea of running crossed your mind, but you haven't acted on it because you don't think you have the body of a runner? Have you thought about running but quit before you started because you knew that you would be breathless at the end of your driveway?

Well, put aside those fears because you can do it. Forget about the image of a perfect body in skintight clothes, and don't worry about how fast or how far you go. I will show you how you can embrace running as a life-enhancing activity and provide you with reasonable guidelines for establishing a program of achievable goals; offers tips on clothing, running shoes, and other equipment; and explains how anyone can prepare for and run distances ranging from a few miles to marathons. You will also meet new friends who are trying to change their lives with their own two feet.

After all, in running and in life, the difference between success and failure sometimes comes down to a single step.

Waddle on, friends.
