Yes.: Running creates lots of work for the muscles, heart and lungs. The muscles use a lot of oxygen to energize the muscle actions. The by-products or CO2 are released to the environment by exhalation from the lungs. Thus it is important to undergo training so the runner can have better endurance and physiologically, there is more efficiency in the function of the heart, lung and muscle.
