I want to lose some weight; im about 2 stone (cant convert)
overweight for my height (5'7 - im about 13 stone). i also
want to get fit, althogh not to superhuman levels - ive no
wish to join the olympic team.

i asked my dr for some advice, he said 'just start running
slowly' - and thats about it. what i need to know is, for a
beginner who is pretty out of shape, how to start running
safely and realistically.

thanks
