Used to run. 2 mi/day, often 6 days a week. This was back in the day when it was very un-frum to do. I would catch all manner of snide and nasty comments. I started with really crummy shoes, and sort of flat feet. Two years of that gave me plantar fasciitis. A sports podiatrist made me arches with one side about 3/4″ higher, because he measured from hip to ankle and there was a difference. With these and fancy shoes I lasted about a year of running untill it became too painful. Years later, I learned from chiropractors and Osteopaths, that it is possible to twist your pelvis by missing a step or other minor tramas, and that my legs were not 3/4″ off. In my Hazolah carrer, I would run as necessary, but today, I am just a 50+ that walks like a madman.
