Hey everyone! I was wondering how running a mile everyday will help me... I'd like to lose 10-15 lbs w/o bulking my thighs/legs up (thats why i'm hesitant to do regular leg exercizes)...i'd also like to flatten my stomach and "love handles", but situps and crunches aren't working for me... what do you guys think?

Its great excersize and lets me eat whatever I want, that way I'll burn it off when I run. By running 3 miles I burn around 515 calories and 160 fat calories, and it takes about 30 min or so:)
