Things You'll Need:
- A good pair of shoes
- A place to run
-
Step 1
Start out by walking for 30 minutes at least 3 times a week. If you can't do 30 minutes right away, work up to it.
-
Step 2
Once you are able to walk for 30 minutes at a time without feeling exhausted, start adding a little bit of running to your routine. Walk for 4 minutes, run for 1 minute, then repeat until your 30 minutes is over.
-
Step 3
Over time, you will reduce your walking time and increase your running time. Try a minute more running every two weeks or so. In other words, walk for 3 minutes, then run for 2. Two weeks after than, walk for 2 minutes, then run for 3.
-
Step 4
Eventually, you will be running for the entire 30 minutes.
-
Step 5
Once you're running for 30 minutes at a time, start adding more time to your workout. Try adding 2-3 minutes of running a week, until you can get up to your final goal.
