Absolutely! Starting small is a fantastic approach to building a sustainable exercise habit. Begin with manageable activities, like walking or jogging short distances, and gradually increase your intensity and duration. This method not only reduces the risk of injury but also helps you develop a routine that feels achievable. Remember, consistency is key in creating lasting healthy habits, so celebrate your progress, no matter how small, as you work towards your running goals.
