This is probably the hardest exercise you can do. But this will build endurance. It will make your legs stronger. Running is hard for different reasons one being it takes a lot of energy. Two you need to be strong in order to keep running. Last it can mess up your feet really bad to the point you may want to see a Doctor. But after all that its still worth it.
