[quote=Anonymous]It does keep weight off, but like any type of exercise, your body eventually gets used to it and you have to mix things up if weight loss is your goal. You can do this with bursts of speed, varying paces, etc. So, take your example of 6 miles three times a week. Say you've been doing that for 10 years and you're finally starting to gain weight. You could switch one workout to a shorter but faster run. Or, you could decide to train for a half marathon. Cut two of the runs to 4 miles, but turn the other one into a really long run -- working up to 10 or 12 miles. [/quote]
