A member asked:
Can running 3-5 miles a day be dangerous for a 180 pound, 16 year old? is it too intense for a beginner?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: It is a good stamina builder. Watch where you run.The biggest risk would be the potholes or other obstructions that would injure your ankles.When you get in the "zone" you may not be paying attention and that can be a problem.
