    Beneficial no matter what. It is great to maintain a good strong cardiovascular system. Plus a strong respiratory system. You'll live longer and healthier.

    Running is good for your heart and lungs, it doesn't matter what you weigh. There are lots of skinny runners - most hard core runners are skinny.

    Maintenance is a part of a good goal, yeah... and just as tough as getting there I think.
