Picture
When I began walking three years and three months ago I started with feet, painful from a car accident where the feet had been broken some 20 years earlier and a right crush leg injury. 

As I have increased my fitness gradually taking two years to begin running and running for over a year before I increased the distance, and also chose a excellent fitted cushioned running shoe, I have been running away from injury so far, and not encountered any problems due to exercise. 
Those injuries I do still get, from time to time are back injuries, not from careful exercise but from sudden movement when I am not fully warmed up and I find doing planned exercise regularly is decreasing my risk of injury considerably.
